Looking forward to all of the "new" stuff Seven!!

Yeah well, I guess it's acceptable. Just jump over that pit quickly, don't look down too much and continue with the game.

Hello NightFright,

unfortunately this is not the case.
The textures tiles perfectly.
The issue that you described is related to another thing.
You could use any texture you want and it would be same same.

MH himself saw it as well and explained it:

One final thing is that I saw some of the old GLQuake style bad-texture-joins in the hard hall in start.bsp.

MH and myself had a little discussion about it on the start of this very thread.

But nevermind,
it is only visible in "hard" entrance of start map (as far as I know).

Best wishes,
Seven

While you are back working on the shader, maybe you could take a look at texture tiling. On the lava surface, there seem to be seams during animation. I think this might be due to at least one of the included textures not tiling properly. It somewhat disturbs the otherwise great animation of the whole thing.

Hello,

you need an additional download for the "haze" effect.
That is one of the topics we discuss in the webangels thread in the WIP subforum.

It is not released yet.
But that doesnt matter, I wanted to make sure, that you update to V0.3 before the other things are released. Because it is needed for them.

Without the additional things, there is no visual difference to V0.2 for you.
So be free to use it now already.

Best wishes,
Seven

Well, I'm actually just now plopping Seven's new pk3 into my Id1 and am like you NightFright...no haze at all...nothing. I don't know what we're missing?? Seven should be on later and maybe he can guide us.

[NightFright]

Hmmm... I had actually updated the shader already. Is there something missing, or is the new heat haze effect only visible in specific maps like E1M7? On the start map, it doesn't show up for me.

@NightFright
The shader needed is in the first post of this thread.

[NightFright]

@Seven:
Pal, could you tell us where you posted the additional stuff needed for that lava effect? I think I am too stupid to find it. Unless you haven't released it yet... xD

Hello Seven,
your Screenshot looks amazing!

UPDATE 20111031:

Dear all,

A shader modification was necessary due to usage of new Lava haze effect.
(available in a different download)
In previous V0.2 the "blendfunc" command prevented the nice visual haze effect.

Please find new update in 1st post.




Best regards,
Seven
