thermal vision

[zangoo]

Im confused of how the infantry will be affected by this, and what if i choose to switch Thermal off?

ok on kashan day all the vehicls and players are in light, so they look some what bright, now i can change the color of the ground and statics and trees, but the light maps will keep all the vehicles and players the same as before. so if python was to edit the sky.con and make the ground dark when you got into a chopper then the players and vehicles would be a the same and the ground would be black. thermal would be switched off when you jump out and it would just set the sky.con back to before.


mora the hud will not be effected by this, but i could make the statics less dark then the ground so it looks some what like that.

Oh thats sounds awesome, but what if i don't want thermal vision on? or are we just going to have theraml for all vehicles on that specific map?

[Mora]

I know the hud wont be effected by this, i was just showing how it could look.

Specter i think only attack choppers, tanks and apcs have this.

and zangoo when you going to make this can you release it for public so it can be tested and maybe even on the kashan night.

What code in sky.con would be changed? Post the normal and the flir sky.con.

[zangoo]

this is what would be needed to change

here is the sky.con from kashan night

So we may see this in future releases .

[dbzao]

Probably not... as it was said, python can only change server-side stuff that would affect everyone in the server, and it may not even work.

[Mora]

Bah

[Rudd]

Was wondering if any progress has been made/is being made/will not be made on this front?
