Making fire bright again

[fn_Quiksilver 1636]

Hi guys,

 

Since 1.58 fire objects have become much less bright.

 

Trying to create a bright fire, using the test_emptyobjectforfirebig vehicle.

 

Are there some particle effects which are required for a brighter fire?

 

my_fire = createVehicle ['test_EmptyObjectForFireBig',(position player),[],0,'NONE'];

should get you started. this stuff has been unpacked a while ago. so who knows, maybe it's the old shit you're looking for :lol:

thanks

 

wonder if its a bug

 

been getting some interpolation errors due to undefined function 'forcesize'

as i mentioned. that source has been unpacked a while ago. you'd be better off unpacking those pbos (i provided the names) of your current install. might potentially fix that.
