I hope so, IIRC the NewDawn mod had act 5 evil urns spawning in other acts... don't know if this can be done with txt only...

My eyes are burning! I have fog in my eyes! Fog in my brain! Fog on the plain in Spain! The Pain! The fog from Act IV can be moved, but it looks terrible I've put it in the Blood Moor, I've put put it in the Desert, I've put it Travincal, and it just kind of sits there like a blob of ... stuff! It should look like a mist ... a cool weather effect ... No, it looks like $&*#$! My eyes are burning more!! I'm going blind!! Nope, I just had my eyes closed I'll try again tomorrow ... I will put cool looking fog in the game ... The fog will not defeat me! I shall defeat the fog!! *~<^>~* ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

What do you mean it looked like sh*t? Was it the pallette? If so, you can try looking for the fog .dcc files and changing the pallette for them.------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

Ok, I had a chance to play with it little more, like you said Apocalypse, fooling around with the .ddc files and changing the pallette ... making it look a bit more transparent ... and you have to put them where the backgound very dark, or they look a bit out of place I think with a bit more tweaking and careful placement I can have them looking really nice ... I'm a bit of a perfectionest and hard to please But I think they'll add a cool look to the game if you apply them in just the right way ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

Gorothon??? Are you in the mood to be artistic? Have you done anything with the fog yet? You can add wispy patches of fog in various locations of the game ... like in the dark shadows and crevices, and the depth of field is not perceivable ... a bit of challenge, but just pretend your decorating a ... hmmm ... a big christmas tree or something It doesn't make drastic appearances to the look of the game ... more like adding subtle finishing touches at the end of the mod ... I might use it like that later in my mod ... but I have much more important things to concentrate on right now ... I'm really looking for a realistic weather-like mist that obscures your vision in battle, which you can pass through in real time ... that would be really cool But I have no idea of how to do that yet ... have you any suggustions of how that can be done?------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."
