Well, interesting new stuff. We can edit the drop ship spawn intervals and what they contain, we can save bunkers created in the skirmishes, along with an easier to use pie menu.

I don't think you can save bunkers just yet, the menu item is only there.

Wont work.. May just be needing a pc restart though, I did just delete all of the mods that didnt work at once, might've even accidentally deleted the audio file..
And yeah the problem is it says it cant initiate the audio. I probably deleted the audio file by accident. Ah well Ill reinstall it.

The new light effects make my game lag, so it would be cool to have a option to turn the glowing off.

There is an option to turn it off... Go to your Cortex Command folder, in the Settings.ini, in the Base.rte and replace "PostProcessing = 1" with "PostProcessing = 0".

Damnit, Data said he'd make the AI able to navigate bunkers. The features of this build redeem that though.

Anyone figure out how the PP effects are added onto bullets? Does it only show up on tracer rounds and certain emitters?

I've been looking, but no code so far. I think it is color defined, but no proof of that as yet.

Guys, its post-processing.

Meaning, its stuff done after the initial items are rendered. You can only force stuff to glow that is programmed to glow.

I think you're right. If any of the RGB color values are greater than a certain value, the effect is added to it.

Code:
AddAmmo = Round
   InstanceName = Round SMG
   ParticleCount = 1
   Particle = MOPixel
      InstanceName = Particle SMG
      Mass = 0.008
      RestThreshold = 500
      LifeTime = 1500
      Sharpness = 250
      HitsMOs = 1
      GetsHitByMOs = 0
         Color = Color
         R = 247
         G = 247
         B = 147
      Atom = Atom
         Material = Material
            CopyOf = Bullet Metal
         TrailColor = Color
            R = 255
            G = 255
            B = 159
         TrailLength = 25
   Shell = MOSParticle
      CopyOf = Casing
   FireVelocity = 80
   ShellVelocity = 10
   Separation = 5

AddAmmo = Round
   CopyOf = Round SMG
   InstanceName = Round SMG Tracer
   ParticleCount = 1
   Particle = MOPixel
      CopyOf = Particle SMG
      InstanceName = Particle SMG Tracer
      RestThreshold = 500
      LifeTime = 1500
      HitsMOs = 1
      GetsHitByMOs = 0
      Color = Color
         R = 247
         G = 247
         B = 147
      Atom = Atom
         Material = Material
            CopyOf = Bullet Metal
         TrailColor = Color
            R = 255
            G = 255
            B = 159
         TrailLength = 45


That's what I did to the normal rounds.

Regardless, I really like how this game is polishing up. Starting to look really sleek.

[13:59] SP2: One thing, in the Effects Folder theres the Glows, are they defined by the colour of the pixels to glow?
[14:00] data: the ones labeled Tiny are
[14:00] SP2: Ok, what about the bigger ones?
[14:00] data: search for PostEffect
[14:00] data: i think


You sure THOR?

EDIT: That proves its Color-Defined.

Apparently not.

But if there is no visibile "PostEffect" variable on module by module basis, how the hell would I know without contact him directly?

Final version better have good docs.

Anyway, wtfxacidtrip on game start?

I wonder why it started out on that layer. If this happens to anyone, press M to cycle views.
