See bullets in multiplayer

Post by At0miC »

yo

You know the flying bullets you can see in single player? (yellow stripes) or in multiplayer the mg42.
Is there a mod for multiplayer to see those bullets for all weapons??

If it is not, plz can someone help me to make a mod for it?

That would be very cool :D

thnx At0miC

I searched everywere, but there is no mod for tracers yet.

Who wants to help me to make one?? plz :)

Because tracers in MP looks really great, I dont want to make custom tracers but I want the tracers from the singleplayer, if that is possible.

Ok,

Thnx to Krane I found this:

1:
sighttrace( Vector start, Vector end, [ Integer pass_entities ], [ Vector mins ], [ Vector maxs ] )

Performs a trace line from the start to the end, returns 0 if something was hit and 1 otherwise

2:
trace( Vector start, Vector end, [ Integer pass_entities ], [ Vector mins ], [ Vector maxs ] )

Performs a Trace Line from the start to the end, returns the end or the position it hit at


3:
tracerfrequency( Integer frequenct )

Set the frequency of making tracers


But I'm not sure how to use this.
:oops: My first time that I'm making a mod :P

Can someone plz help me to make? :oops:
Thnx

Hows about trying this from a different angle. Look at the gun tik files. You will notice that there are things that are thrown from the gun like smoke, shells, and even metal debris (actually this was commented out due to the adverse effect it had to fps)

I dont see why you couldnt go ahead and and use something like this to produce a tracer. Mess around with velocity and angles to produce the effect you want. I dont think ( and when i say i dont think i mean i dont, it gives me head aches) that it will be as easy as setting something from 0 to 1 to turn on the tracers but hey it wouldnt be the first time someone said it cant be done and i did it anyways so i wish the same luck to you.
