[T2] Skinning Mortar Trail|baby|roach| 11-04-2002, 06:55 PM Im having some problems with changing the color of the mortar trail. I thought the files for the mortar trail was dust00.png ect... Seems only to change the missle trail and a few other things. Anyone know what files that are for the mortar? ty Nikita 11-04-2002, 07:45 PM Can't. It's a particle effect. :( I believe you can only change the 'smoke' part of the commet, but definitely not the actual green. Britney Speared 11-04-2002, 08:31 PM I've seen blue smoke for T2. Its just the smoke part of it, the mortar itself still has a hint of green around it but oh well. |baby|roach| 11-04-2002, 10:22 PM Originally posted by Britney Speared I've seen blue smoke for T2.

Default is gray, I know, and then the server colors it green. But you can actually edit them which I learned...

Was this changed recently or was just kept away that secretly that it's only been found out now? Alexander 11-04-2002, 11:34 PM [ZU]Turtle and I started messing with this, and we found out that darker colors sort of "override" the green color. The green trail is still there, it just doesn't show through. Red, dark blue, purple, etc. all cover it up. Yellow and lighter shades of other colors don't. Halide must know something we don't. http://reprisal.teamrapture.com/tribes2/rainbowfruity/zRedHeartMortarTrails.vl2 TeckMan 11-05-2002, 02:41 AM I have blue trails =/ Halide 11-05-2002, 09:35 AM ok, that makes sense now... the server simply "tells" the client what hue to use for the particle... i guess some certain darker colors are overriding the green. but, i actually see a little green in that blue trail.
