States the following

; FadeoutStart         - distance in meters where the halo and dazzle start to fade out
; FadeoutEnd           - distance in meters where the halo and dazzle are completely faded out


However, when getting further away from the dazzle than the FadeoutEnd distance. The brightness of said dazzle goes to 100% again, instead of 0%.

If I don't make sense, please tell, so I can post pics.

Hey, since when is the maximum Files Per Message set to 1?

Had to work around it.



No life threatening bug or anything, I just happened to notice it.

If you can make and send me something so I can test this I will have a look at it. I won't promise anything though, if it seems too hard to fix/figure out what the cause is I will not do it since it is, like you said, not a life threatening bug. Wink

Used to make the screenshots.
Values lowered, to save some walkies.
Thanks for looking at it.

That's actually pretty cool, despite the glitchyness. I tested this ingame too, it's quite sexy.

yeah

Okay, after some research I figured out why your having a problem:

; HaloIntensityPow - 1.0 would be linear fadeout, smaller than that will steepen the curve (smaller hotspot)
; HaloSizePow - 1.0 would be linear fadeout, smaller than that will steepen the curve (smaller hotspot)
; FadeoutEnd - distance in meters where the halo and dazzle are completely faded out

FadeoutEnd has to reach 0 before HaloIntensityPow or HaloSizePow, otherwise the game tries to divide by zero, I suppose Westwood made it a case that if that happened it would set the Size to 1 for what ever reason, I'd assume to avoid a crash but at the same time let the editor know he didn't set it up right.

Arent HaloIntensityPow and HaloSizePow just constants in the calculation?

The only one I have is heavily modified for Renhalo, the other one is just default Renegade so their won't be any fixes there.

Dazzle looks better then halo anyways, dazzle goes invisible when you can't see where its emitting from, so it looks more realistic for vehicle lights.
