[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
but the thing is, the effect does not blur everything. it pinches
it and warps it. This is for DM so both client and hl are in
the same file. I have the function AlertTargets() send a msg
using
EntityMessageBegin( this, true );
WRITE_BYTE( BLAST_MSG_STREAKS);
WRITE_VEC3COORD( tr.startpos );
MessageEnd();
tr.startPos should be where the effect is coming from. but,
it does not work. i can use even my vecAiming which is
= Vector vecAiming = pOwner->GetAutoaimVector( AUTOAIM_5DEGREES );
or vecSrc = Vector vecSrc = pOwner->Weapon_ShootPosition();
But it doesn't seem to want to move the effect up or down.
There is actually two Entity Messages. One is BLAST_MSG_STREAKS and
the other is BLAST_MSG_BIG_SHOT both of which I use but in different parts
of the code.
Do you know of a way to calculate the location of the muzzle and set that
to a Vector?
