armored_sheep 56 Posted December 28, 2010 I wrote basic info about *_TI textures in comunity wiki http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Thermal_Imaging_Maps * Red channel of a TI texture is always 100% white, this means unaltered config values for half cooling time will be used. ** Red channel only affects how much an object heats up from the SUN. * Green channel consists of base layers made of grey 3D noise and lightmaps, with bright areas of heat sources (if present). * Blue channel is 100% black with white areas where moving parts are. * Alpha channel is metabolism heat, used on people and for barrel heat on tanks/weapons. It is similarily done as the Green channel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soul_assassin 1750 Posted December 28, 2010 the vbs info was missing the alpha channel bit :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[aps]gnat 29 Posted December 28, 2010 Thanks! Much appreciated !! Those ppl wondering about further background info, below is related, but not directly (ie like the Buldozer preview seems impossible); http://developer.vbs2.com/onlinehelp/Content/Adding_Models/How_to/AMHT_Thermal_Imaging_How.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phaeden 0 Posted January 19, 2011 Do these thermal images work with buildings as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
