BLINK rate

Distant Storm - 1-2-2005 at 03:20 AM

i am making a new map but i have seen in some other maps i think that when u look under the bridge it is solid and not see through i know it has something to do with the blink rate of the bridge but what do i set it to ??? can anyone help

sorry mate, i never realised the blink rate existed... but what do you mean by solid and not see through when you look under the bridge, which bridge looking at it from underneath or what? Hopefully Eagle Eye or someone will come over and save the day. What problem is the blink giving you?

If you can see through a section of a building, it's not to do with the Blink Group..Blink group is usually for tunnel pieces, and the inside of some buildings..

The problem is the Building, or item..it's the way it was made with the 3D program, the designer creates the item, them removes faces to lower the poly count of that item..usually the faces that are removed are ones that wouldn't normally be seen..

So, if it's a bridge, then chances are, the end faces have been removed cos that part of the bridge is usually on the ground..and the missing faces are hidden.

The Nova 3D guys didn't design the items to be used the way we use them, so your gonna have to hide the see-through bits with another item, or use something else.

yeah, you can tell they are with lots and lots of things...I could go on and on, but one thing that irritates me is how crap the rifle shots are in LW. Only a handful of the guns sound alright. The best is the shotgun on the M4 and the FN MAG. And the M4 itself. Yeah.

yeh i agree the m4 is a good gun i find it easiest to use when i rarely gun

M4 is OK when you want to raid a base or something or gun down some BGs from a distance. But I like the SAW or FN MAG (dont think theres a distance). Because youve got 200 rounds of firepower. When the BGs rush you, you'll be able to gun down a fair few before they stop or you get killed.

yeh but i feel the mag and saw recoil more it is very anoying although the m4 does recoil it doesn't as much and comes with a scope

i could resort to cheats to stop the recoil but i feel no justice in it i would rather suffer and be killed than to win without having the same resorces as other people

nah, cheats are lame. But when youve got the SAW or MAG, I always fire in short to medium bursts. But when theres a huge mob of angry idiots, Auto comes alive and in just a few seconds youve got a big pile of dead bodies. I ususally dont notice the SAW recoil. I always keep the mouse moving down slowly as the gun goes up, keeping a balance. But when theres dust and gunk on the mouse moving parts, im all over the place.
