Beam Colors

[Caydr]

Hey um.... I'm just wondering if it's possible to somehow make it so that ion beams match the color(s) you select as your team color?

Any of you eggheads know this one?

[Ragnarokx]

no way to do this, other than editing all ion beam .rot's etc. Its just that weapon files dont have a teamcolor since they are not in Hod format

[Caydr]

And.. uh.... so... what does that actually mean? :bag:

[£lectricMule]

It means no.

[Caydr]

The very fact that you oppose this idea makes me think I must be on to something.....

:banana:

Caydr: Do you actually think that people are TRYING to hold you back? Its not a meter of opposing the idea, we just dont think its possible. We could be wrong, but i'd have to agree that since beams are not tied into HODs that there is no Team channel to use.

Heh... nice one goat... he's sure to believe us now. He'll never know our secret. Bwaahahahaha!!!!!

j/k

.HOD files can call on team colors, but FX .lua's can not.

So it's not possible. It was a good idea though.

if you can stand an ion beam that always punches through you can make a really skinny and long cylinder hod the smae length as the range of the weapon with team color and use that as the weapon effect.
