Question about HL2

[kingthebadger]

Okay, if a player gets burnt (do you see the effects of it on the player?) like burnt skin etc

What like scorch marks on the hands of the HEV suit? I doubt it...

 

[Vegeta897]

No way, as far as I know you would need a completely new model and animations. Essentially, you would have to remake all of Gordons hand animations with the burn mark.

All that work for a little burn mark? I am happy with the fire indecator on the HEV suit.

Actualy you dont need new animations.

I suppose the indicator will tell you if you get burned.

 

[Kon]

I dont think the HEV suit that you wear allows you (the player) to be burnt. I dont see how you would see any effect to yourself anyways..
if you mean other characters or npcs in the game, I'm sure that it could be done, I dont know if it has been made so that characters turn all burnt and crispy after being burnt though. I know the zombies can be burnt, I dont remember how they looked after being burnt. I would assume a quick few changed textures on the model would be enough or something

 

[kingthebadger]

ha yeah, well my mod involves fire just wondering if it was possible

 

[Tyrsenus]

I think that wouldn't be hard to do. Now here's a task: make a mod so that blood spurts out of someone's neck when they get headshot (or other limbs).

 

[Roland Deschain]

Can't wait for fluid dynamics to start appearing in games, can you imagine all the mods with artirial spray (shudder).

Well, I learned recently that Black and White II has a rather nice-looking liquid dynamics system (flowing lava, no less), lazicsavo, so maybe that's not as far off as some people are saying...

That's probably an animation.

The Vampire: Bloodlines people seem to be physically affected by fire.

But so are headcrab zombies - but the question is would we see burnt skin/texture?

Nope, it's specifically stated to be part of the physics simulation.

The liquids react to physical forces. Lava can be "poured tactically", for instance...

 

[Harryz]

Does it really matter?

Who ya talkin' to, Willis?
