Fuzzy cameras and tanks that sound real Created 21 years ago2003-09-04 14:52:46 UTC by Vassy

How do I make a tank have a proper firing sound when I fire it? I always get the sound of the assassin's silenced pistol. Also, is there any way to make a trigger_camera's view be fuzzy? I read once that I would need a knowledge of C++ programming, but it was done in bshift. So is there any other way of doing it?

There's a fire sound field in the '_tank's properties, isn't there?

to make the fire sound you need to make an ambient_generic, give it a suitable sound, give it a name.. and make the func tank target it, make sure you set the flags of the ambient_generic properly, Start silent; Is Not looped; and a medium sound radius should do fine...

as for the camera 'fuzzyness' or interlace this was done with a simple texture trick,

simly make a texture with black and grayish horisontal/vertical stripes, make it a func_wall or something, and set its render mode to additive and render fx to about 90ish (additive renders black invisible) now place the func_wall in front of the camera and there you have it, perfect security camera interlace.

no...

whoa. hehe. teh rasterlines

Goes in the CSG line. Look here, ex/tremely/ handy:
