Bullet Vapor Streaks

Post by Swaffy »

As seen on Halo games with the sniper rifle, or any gun in GTA: Vice City.

Is there a way I can create bullet streaks [grey smoke lines behind the bullet] for a projectile?

i think you might be able to get the trails out of the bazooka , just change the texture files and stick them in other guns, idk if will work or not but just guessing, i have never done it before. only one problem though, the bazooka bullet trail will change as well lol.

sorry if this doesnt help, just as soon as you said "Is there a way I can create bullet streaks", bazooka trails just poped into my head :D

My problem with using the smoke emitters is that the bullet is too fast. Instead of a streak, there'd be a dotted line of little smoke balls.

It doesn't matter any more. My laptop got stolen a while back, and my mod and its stuff was on it. I have one friend that had it, but he said he deleted it along with BF 1942 because his PC had issues.

If any of you have my mod on your PC, please ... please let me download it. I spent more than 2 years building on it.
It's called "Swaffy'sMod" and was set up for download via ThePirateBay torrent.

I know how it feel to lose a project you've been working on for a long period of time:(
Emitters show sprites right, duplicates the sprites as the projectile goes on. well With emitters you can change the speed or distance of when each sprite shows. Sorry I don't have any code to look at. But I Think others here in the forum know what I'm talking about.
I may take a look later.

Sorry to hear about your laptop dude. I hate dishonest people who lie and steal.

My equivalent to vapor trials doesn't really look like a full trial per-say. It would be made worse by the likely faster moving bullets your mod will be using. My vapor trails won't look much better. Sorry. :P
