Hi there,
i have some newbie questions. Because i don't want to spam the board i'll just post them all in here
*** Key questions: ***
*** 1 ***
I want to raise my particle velocity when pressing "v" and lower it when pressing"shift+v".
so if my partcile velocity variable is pV# i was trying to do something like this:
(the scancodes are wrong...but i don't have them on me now....for "v" i use "1" and "shift"
is "2".
set particle velocity 1, pV#
if keystate(1)=1 then pV#=pV#+1
if keystate(1) and keystate(2)=1 then pV#=pV#-1
Raising the velocity works...but lowering doesn't.
How can i make it that multiple keypresses are recorded?
*** 2 ***
Also, when i raise the velocity when pressing "v" it goes up VERY fast.
What i want is that when i press "v" that pV# is raised by one and when i keep pressing the
"v" nothing happens. So for every point i want to raise i want to push the "V" every time.
Is this possible?
*** matrix question ***
Can i create a matrix with refelections? (Blitz has a mirror code for example for a plane).
*** particle question ***
*** question 1 ***
Is it possible to change the particle size? I noticed that when i use large images (2024x
2024) the particles get bigger too. But i want to use normal 256x256 and change the scale.
Something like "scale particles" or "set particle size".
Right now my particles look bad (especially when i need huge clouds of smoke).
*** question 2 ***
When i put my particles in a level they look bad. When for example my particle is behind a
window and it's bottom behind a wall, then the upper part will be bright (like the window)
and the lower dark (like the wall). Can i change it that my particles look the same ? (is
this simply settign an ambient for the particle object?).
Well i think tahts it...for now
Hope you can help.
Thx
