Hrmm not sure, but the > graphic (hud) seen when you use the nv is wicked nice.. For silencer look up a tutorial on the net abot silencing the glock, basical all ya do is change the sound file when firing to a quiet one :) NV, again tutorials about this, basical an overlay fade of say green and then increase the light somehow (NV for Erads uses a TE light attached to the entity to give a kinda IR NV effect) > I would also like to add the "overheated" affect for a couple weapons > (IE like the Sten), but not sure about the path I should take etc.. Over heat aint too hard, basical while firing increase a counter which when it gets toa certain lvl make the gun cut out or slow down or whatever, and for cooling use a think function to reduce the counter value... couple that with some nice HUD/VGUI gfx and ya laffin :) > I am not looking for someone to code this etc.. just for some ideas for > proper implementation Hope that help/gives ya some ideas :) Rob "cause I dont wanna be a hero and I dont wanna be a zero" - Feeder, Turn Jon Henry Lee, Your memory will live on in your fans and your music, Rest In Peace _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
