Hi everyone,

 

Could someone please give me the link to the transparent flags mod for JA MP CTF? I know there's been a release but I've lost the link and I can't find it.

 

Thanks.

It's much better cos now when standing with your back facing the wall, the camera moves and the flag obscures your vision, then during that period of time when the flag's obscuring your vision, you've just been pwned. Definately an awesome mod.

You did the flag mod? Awesome, its a very valuable mod :). I'm doing my bit of modding for the community too so I'm no freeloader.

Yea, Im part of the Red slushie mod team... I dont have any certain job, besides mapping, but I just give all around input and advice/help, as I know abit about how the Q3 Engine works

Downloaded it, looked at the shader file. Obviously a much needed mod, but I wonder if it causes problems w/invalid pk3's in MP, since it's just a few touchups to the models.shader, and not a new one. I'd doubt it, since shaders are a client thing.

 

Love this little mod, though!

Chances are it doesn't cause problems with invalid pk3s. It would make sense to release the mod client side rather than server side. Server sided would have just caused problems.

It wouldnt be possible to do it server side, as the shader files are run off the client, The shader was edited, but only the flag area giving it Q3 Transparent, and lighting effects, but the rest of the shader was left untouched.

 

I doubt its whats giving you an "invalid pk3" error, but if it is, let me know.

I'm guessing that this makes the flag transparent all the time instead of just when you're in third person and you're carrying the flag?

 

If you want, I suppose I could add a minor code fix to OJP so the transparent flag is only seen by the player holding the flag.

If you want to razorace. I personally reckon the flags look good transparent all the time :).

I think (and I think people would agree) the flags just look better transparent...
