I remembered reading somewhere that the maker of the Tie mod tried doing that. Which is adding custom engine sounds. Unfortunately he said FL didn't take coz it always crashed because of it.

Something funny happened in the game. I just fired up your mod and started to test it in the SP campaign. 10 seconds into the first cinematic and I was laughing to myself. Remember the part where the Nomads uncloaked and let loose around 4 torpedoes at Freeport 7? Well, something else happened. The Nomads uncloaked, fired 2 torpedoes and fired another pair but it collided with each other and exploded in their faces! HAHAHAHAHAHA! So, only 2 torpedoes made it and apparently it was still enough to destroy Freeport 7. I tried it twice just to see it wasn't a fluke and both times it happened. Nothing game stopping but very funny nonetheless.

hmmm.... the sond that was tried might have been the wrong sampling rate or something. I remember halflife is picky about that sometimes.

Could the bouncing problem of bships in asteroid fields be HP related ?

i took a look and most of them have [ hit_pts = 999999961690316250000000000000000000.000000 HP.

Maybe, the HP amount is taken into account to calculate which of 2 objects should bouce inc ase of collision.

Just a newbie idea, don't flame me .

ps. Can someone make a small tutorial how to make 1 exmeple base destructibe ?

aka:

interesting theory, but it probably has something to do with a mass field, or it may just be hardcoded the way it is, since players weren' "supposed" to be able to fly bs.

spawn:

I haven't got them yet, but I'll take a look later. It may take a bit to get them...

Ahem:

When he awoke, he found himself on a strange planet. It was a beautiful planet, full of lush forests and rolling hills, but something was wrong. There was no sound. The trees above him made no sound when their leaves should have rustled in the wind. The birds made no sounds as they flew the air. What had happened? He walked through the forest, never crunching a leaf, nor cracking a twig. As he neared a clearing, he beheld an ancient building, covered with vines. He entered. Inside was a table, on which sat a computer. On the screen, it said: ERROR: DATA\AUDIO Corrupt! Rebuild? He clicked yes, and the mouse clicked! Sound! He went back out, greeted by the sounds of life. In awe, he went inside again. Edit? asked the screen. He clicked yes…

now that i'm through with my creative-writing outburst, here's the deal. I'm gonna try and redo some sounds for the game. I'm gonna try to add in the TIE sound for the TIE engine, and the TIE laser sound. Just not a TIE without those... Also, I'm emailing Moby's distrubutor to see what the terms are for using a small clip of his music, (i.e. how small does it have to be to be free). Right now I want to use a small clip of "One of these Mornings " for the "yer ded" music. I take requests too.

ALSO:
I need a place with good clips of TIE sounds. I can't find any goo ones.

spawn:
I still don't have the e-mail. I dunno...

lmao BOB...i was not tring to make a big deal out of it i just thought that a TIE thats sounding like a dragon made no sense...because the "imagination" factor kicks in when you see a TIE fighter or to be more correct if memory my is still in tact... TWIN.ION.ENGINE.I could be a little off,My other idea since we are on a >STARWARS< kick is... what about changing the skin of a planet to look like the big awesome mass which is the Death Star?...or making some how a Star Destoryer?.
anyhow that's just my thoughts...if there any help at all is yet too be seen.
