Is it possible to change rain colour?

I was just wondering into this topic when i was thinking of maybe re-modding my old Mustafar map. It would look cool to see some lava (orange) showers...

Yes I think - in the .fx file (BFBuilder\Datamapname\Worlds\mapname\World1 folder) there is a section like this:

Effect("Precipitation")
{
Enable(1);
Type("Streaks");
Range(12.5);
Color(216, 220, 228);
VelocityRange(1.0);
ParticleDensityRange(0.0);
CameraCrossVelocityScale(0.2);
CameraAxialVelocityScale(1.0);

GroundEffect("rainsplash");
GroundEffectSpread(8);

I think u know what to do now, right?! :)

lol, i don't know how to do it, so i shouldn't be talking, but orange=green? BFbuilders brain must be decaying.

I tried using the code for red this time, it just crashed.

I will experiment when I have time... maybe it does not like the colour red!

i tried to make it orange, and it turned green...

What's the RGB reference of this orange color ?

i think it is Red Green Blue

This is simply the RGB reference...

umm... since it crashed, did you then deleted anything? or did you change the values to 285 (I think its the highest number), 0, 0?

or did you just delete the 2 others? like: Color(285); instead of the: Color(285, 0, 0); - ?

C ya

- I'm just currios

According to you, Qdin, why did I ask to -_- to copy his custom rain color's RGB reference on this thread ?

I think to bad values, too...

Post by **-_-** » Thu May 26, 2005 7:25 pm

The RGB values were: 255, 0, 0

Your custom color seems to have been "inverted". Try again using this RGB values : "0 255 255".

The ambient color of your world (in sky file) could also be affecting colors of certain things. Check that to make sure it doesn't interfere with the colors you want.
