transparent duels?

[bzug0]

Can anyone know how can I add some transparency to private duelers :s

 

Or at least some tips from where to start.

well JA+ has a serverinfo cvar jp_duelAlpha or something, and the client transmits that i think in the cgs_t struct, then when applying the duel shader, it sets that value to the 'a' (alpha) value of the shader.

Still not tested yet but in cg_players.c and cg_player I found

 

	if (!cg.snap->ps.duelInProgress && cent->currentState.bolt1 && !(cent->currentState.eFlags & EF_DEAD) && cent->currentState.number != cg.snap->ps.clientNum && (!cg.snap->ps.duelInProgress || cg.snap->ps.duelIndex != cent->currentState.number))
{
	legs.shaderRGBA[0] = 50;
	legs.shaderRGBA[1] = 50;
	legs.shaderRGBA[2] = 255;

	legs.renderfx &= ~RF_RGB_TINT;
	legs.renderfx &= ~RF_FORCE_ENT_ALPHA;
	legs.customShader = cgs.media.forceSightBubble;

	trap_R_AddRefEntityToScene( &legs );
}

 

adding this line

legs.shaderRGBA[3] = somealphavalue;

might work, or something around this.

[ensiform]

aye.

I'm happy

 

 

...xD

[bzug0]

not happy again

 

changing this value(legs.shaderRGBA[3]) doesn't seems to work... maybe its missing something
