Hi, i was wondering how to put a sand storm like the one Bobfinkl have in his Geonosis Crossfire. If it is already tutorial about it i would be very happy. If not i was wondering if one of the modders here could explain how i add it. Im going to use it in my upcoming map, 627th Legion Assault, the battle is located in the dune sea and then i want to add a sand storm. Is it possible to set the line of sight when you add a sand storm? Because i want it to be a little more visibility than it is on Geonosis Crossfire. Also does someone have a nice sand texture which isnt as rocky as the ones on the Tatooine map in SWBF 2? Thanks.

the geonosis cloud odf

Just add one of them and the intire map is covered? Also Bobfinkl said something about wind, how do i add that?

you add a couple and it will fill a small map.

I have no idea on how to add wind.

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]Effect("FogCloud")
{
Enable(1);
Texture("brownmist");
Range(90.0, 120.0);
Color(168, 172, 180, 128);
Velocity(5.0, 0.0);
Rotation(0.1);
Height(16.0);
ParticleSize(28.0);
ParticleDensity(100.0);
}[/code]

you'll need the brownmist.tga also.


and/or you can place some geo_prop_dust.odfs into your map in ZE, you'll also need the geo_prop_dust.msh file and the browndust.tga that go with it.

That should cover your entrie map.
