pitchblack - Quotentote - 01-09-2012

i need to know how to make it really pitchblack for one scene. i dont want that the player can see anything without light. is it possible?



RE: pitchblack - Khyrpa - 01-09-2012

1,1,1 value box lights that wont illuminate any walls etc. That disables night vision



RE: pitchblack - Quotentote - 01-09-2012

sorry for that dumb question^^ but what do you mean with '1,1,1'?
i created a boxlight for my area. you mean the diffuse colours?

AFAIK, this requires a full conversion.


RE: pitchblack - Khyrpa - 01-09-2012

It requires full conversion to disable night vision completely, but if you make the area the player walks in illuminated with a light value above the treshold that triggers night vision, it wont happen. Thus do this thing I used in my 24 hour amnesia map:
Spoiler below!

make sure the player can actually navigate in there, I did that terribly and people had serious trouble getting past this thing. But yeah, it doesnt illuminate the walls but only the player so night vision wont trigger...

yeah i played this too and i raged xD i walked backwards but i didn't get through^^

its only for one part where its important to see nothing... (sounds stupid xD)
but if theres no option without a full conversion, i am lost Sad((

RE: pitchblack - Khyrpa - 01-09-2012

If you would describe the whole event you are trying to create, that could really help people help you further...
