Im having trouble with this.... I have pipes that dump tiberium water into the ocean, I cant seem to get them to look right. any suggestions?
(specificaly when the tiberium water hits the ocean water. and how the water looks when falling, from a distance it looks like just bent angles) http://www.n00bstories.com/image.fetch.php?id=1310021070 [ December 15, 2002, 16:44: Message edited by: DeafWasp ]

make it splash if you can and blend the colors together (tiberium and water where it hits the water)

Place an emitter there, something like a mist. Kinda like you would have at the bottom of a waterfall. Its a cheap way to avoid having to fix anything up too much. You could just use the emitter to hide things you don't want to be seen.

someone told me that emiters dont show up in online games, yet there are some in volcano and they work fine.

The ones in Volcano lag me up big time. I often run over that path in the tunnels and just see name tags running around the tunnel but no bodies.

that isnt beacuse of the lag, or the emitters. I think it has to do with a vis sector problem.
I dont know anything about working with vis sectors though.

Emitters show up online. That's what causes sparks, explosions, repair beams, etc. They most certainly show up online. I think someone was lying to you.

Your point being?... Sorry to inform you of this, but even ACK learns something every now and again. LOL. I've been using emitters on lots of stuff for a while now, and if ACK told you emitters don't show up online, ask him why exactly he was having problems with the repair beam. That is an emitter after all....and if it doesn't show up, how can there be a problem? [ December 16, 2002, 11:17: Message edited by: Bumpaneer ]

No, I meant the dummy emitters inside of the presets... The ones you place in the editor. From what I've seen, they only appear in a LAN game, but not in a regular MP game. Try it and see, Country Meadows 1.4 had tiberium mist on the fields, but they won't show up in a MP game.
