Ground decals doesnt fade out?

Post by TradeMark »

Is this a bug or a feature?: when some explosion creates those transparent black marks on the ground, they just suddenly disappear after some time.

Would look better if they faded slowly away...

Are you sure you looked in the right place? It's not in Spring folder, but in a place like C:\Documents and Settings\Login\Local Settings\Application Data\

Hmm, those should last longer, like wouldnt start fading right after they were created. Now when commander explodes, and the smoke has disapparead, the black mark on the ground is already almost faded out... it was better when it was more black for longer time...
