Customisable "sfx types"/Others ideas

[Crampman]

I was wondering if it would be cool to make the sfx-emit system (in the scripts) customizable, like the explosions.
That would allow modders to make more complexes units effetcs (And not only black smoke, bubbles and 'fire'...), based on the particle engine...(And anybody that used a particle engine knows that this is very powerfull...)

I heard that there will have a new scripting system, so maybe it will include that...

Am I wrong ?

New ideas :

-Could it be possible to make that features can use a script (just like units) ? that would allow to make animated features, like burning corpses, or, showing a feature slowly diseappearing while reclamed, or exploding when destroyed.

-About the s3o textures : the blue channel of the second texture is unused. Why not use it to define texture transparency ? (If it is possible, of course )

urmmm...

Are my suggestions so stupid/useless/ass-stinking/crazy/noobish ?

I don't know but that post is.

Give people time to sort through all the posts plus the spam from one particular memember.

Woah, where was I when I missed this one? This is a great idea, pretty common sense but still...

Things like jet engines, flame jets for flamers glowy lazers and what not would all get a huge boost from the implementation of this.

[spam]very nice for improv graphic
but i sugest to activ sfx in .fbi files
like weapon
and sfx can hav additional features
i think to acid smoke and burning jet
more easy to chang in .fbi(for someone moron)[/spam]

if someone talk in public to a moderator about a possibl spamer
and if the moderator don t agree and erase criminal post
or disagree and resolv
and more if the possibl spamer is warned by admin only in privat messag....
so really a problem exist in this forum

that is not a [xrated]spamer
will doing the law
in a really serious subject forum

Other idea :

I figured out that there was one type of units 'missing' : mobiles mexes !
I tried to make one, but it's impossible...Can't this be fixed ?
That would be nice !

Imagine the possibilities offered by such units : instead of sending cons to buid a mex, you send the mex ! (Or a mobile moho... )
Of course, they should be slow, more expensives and less efficient than the 'classical' mexes...

it exist a loader
for all building
it s work
but not an final version
"mobility_upgades"
vtol wheel or leg

[j5mello]

the mobility upgrades are for to make moblie factories (which still don't work)

Crampman wants mobile extractors. the problem is that the extraction radius doesn't move along with the unit. So, whereever the unit is first built, thats where it will extract.

[emmanuel]

error the loader load evrythings

but for the makemetal=.1
i don t know i will must try it

I would be happy if the new explosions could be used in a script, like a tank firing it's gun and it would produce a groundflash and a nice big fireball for example.

Particle effects would be excellent...
