Is the idea that you want to have continual rain everywhere on a map, and it seems easier to just attach it to the soldiers? This would break when using vehicles or alternative camera views. What maps have rain/snow everywhere? Could you just look at that? |

Ya i would like to have the rain attached to the soldiers, because in testing it produces less lag than placing rain/snow generating objects all over map like the AirWolf Snow Storm map. The effects do show in different camera views but do not while soldier is in vehicle. The plan was to use the effects only on infantry maps. Im thinking if i can attach effects to only human players or the 1st person camera, then there would be no lag. Just can't find an object other than "USSoldier" to attach to. Suggestions anybody?? |

Well, would it not really matter what you attach the effect to, since it would still show up around the player? What about tanks or planes with a cockpit...its just really an 'overlay' of sorts. I'll bet you could do that with a player, but I dunno if you could get it to be animated, so it looks like its snowing...

You can attach the effect to any portion of the soldier, but id like to attach the effect to the "player" not bots or other human players that are off in the distance. I get major lag & then CTD when 10-15 soldiers come together within 15 meters. So is it possible to attach an effect to the 1st person camera? or 3d person camera? or anything else that only a player would have. Is there a way to differentiate the soldier that the player is controlling & other soldiers, because USSoldier applies to all us soldiers on the map. |

Are you really getting bad lag with them placed over the terrain..? no coll mesh and no network info.. i have covered maps with rain and snow effects without lag.. which effect are you using? its a custom or a DC one? |
