Adding lightning + sound to slay

Hey all,

I have been attempting to modify slay.sp to add lightning + sound. I have taken the lightning effects and sound from the Uberpunisher plugin (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=58660), and tried to add it in.

I managed to get the plugin to compile, but it only plays the sound... no lightning effect. See the attached slay.sp to see what I have done.

Does anybody know what I am doing wrong here?

Regards,

Bobbobagan

Bump. Please help me!

Re: Adding lightning + sound to slay

That's because you're setting up the TempEnts, but not sending them.

Code:

    TE_SetupBeamPoints(toppos, playerpos, g_Lightning, g_Lightning, lightningstartframe, lightningframerate, lightninglife, lightningwidth, lightningendwidth, lightningfadelength, lightningamplitude, lightningcolor, lightningspeed);

    TE_SetupExplosion(playerpos, g_ExplosionFire, 10.0, 10, TE_EXPLFLAG_NONE, 200, 255);

    TE_SetupSmoke(playerpos, g_Smoke1, smokescale, smokeframerate);

    TE_SetupSmoke(playerpos, g_Smoke2, smokescale, smokeframerate);

    TE_SetupMetalSparks(sparkstart,sparkdir);





    TE_SendToAll(0.0);

In effect, you only sent the last one (MetalSparks).
It should be:

PHP Code:


		
			
    TE_SetupBeamPoints(toppos, playerpos, g_Lightning, g_Lightning, lightningstartframe, lightningframerate, lightninglife, lightningwidth, lightningendwidth, lightningfadelength, lightningamplitude, lightningcolor, lightningspeed);
    TE_SendToAll();
    TE_SetupExplosion(playerpos, g_ExplosionFire, 10.0, 10, TE_EXPLFLAG_NONE, 200, 255);
    TE_SendToAll();
    TE_SetupSmoke(playerpos, g_Smoke1, smokescale, smokeframerate);
    TE_SendToAll();
    TE_SetupSmoke(playerpos, g_Smoke2, smokescale, smokeframerate);
    TE_SendToAll();
    TE_SetupMetalSparks(sparkstart,sparkdir);
    TE_SendToAll();

Someone has actually done a separate plugin already that does this, might check it out..
