1. In your sentence, it should be “proves”, not “proofs”. That’s probably the sort of mistake you make in your map descriptions. I was not using “pluralis majestatis”, (note the spelling). When I said “We”, I meant myself and my three team-mates who play Joint Ops on LAN almost every Wednesday of the year, and alternate between laughter and…

Yes, thanks, I would like to.

I think the blackest night is what’s in your amoeba-like brain.

Bye then.

Why thank you. Your response says much about you.

I’m sorry but you don’t seem to understand.

I’m using NileJ4F.

It is my experience from the missions that I have created, that in a DF Terrain with murky water, if you use any fish or sharks of a different team number to the players, they will swim around and they will attack you if you are in the water.

In the DVX Terrain with the t…[Read more]

Ah, now that’s the “if at first you don’t succeed, give up” approach.

What we have learnt is that fish with identical properties behave differently in different terrains.

DF Terrains have active fish but murky water.

DVX Terrains have translucent water but inactive fish.

Maybe somebody knows why. And maybe nobody knows why.

I think you misunderstand the concept of “Reminiscence.” One cannot have “recherche du temps perdu” if one has not experienced them in the first place.

If we did not share our knowledge, but left everyone to fend for themselves, then we would still be living in caves wondering if there was anything outside, and there would be no point in having m…[Read more]

Neither am I the one who writes snarky responses when someone asks a simple question about the game. I thought we were here to offer advice and help, whether it be something simple about darkest night settings in games or deep coding. If you can’t respond nicely then I suggest you shut your gob, or you’ll get snarky responses back.

Well what you could do is go into the programme and rewrite the code yourself, Shemihazah.
You’re welcome.

Well obviously.
I actually found the answer in a much more simple way, and now I know what is the blackest night you can get.
But I’m keeping it a secret.
Thanks for being so extremely helpful not.

Okay so the crazy thing that is now occurring is that the Deadly Silver Fish just float there in the water ignoring you. I tested in another translucent water DVXG9. I tried Deathmatch, Team Death Match, and Co-operative versions; giving the Silver Fish Team numbers of 0, 2, 3 etc, different to my own. At no point did they bother swimming…[Read more]

Okay yes that did it. Must have been some carry through when I swapped terrain under the village.
Water looks a little sludgy from above, and underwater is realistically sludgy but you can see a fair distance ahead. So that works for me.
Murk is set at 0.50, so presumably if I drop it to 0.10 it will be more clear, and if I raise it to 0.90, it…[Read more]

Okay, so I opened my Klong River map in NileJ4F, and swapped out the current terrain and chose DVXG1 as suggested. Then I saved. I went back in again and selected all the objects and dragged them to a good position, and now all I have to do is adjust heights on the terrain. So I thought I’d test the water, as they say.
I went into the mission and…[Read more]

Thank you that is excellent information. I shall investigate with new terrain.

I’m using NileJ4F.
Any terrain file really.
But I had a Klong village on stilts DM using DFD1, Full00 Env, and if you fall in the water, you get attacked by piranhas.
Trouble is you can’t see the piranhas coming at you, and it would be nice to do so. That’s why I’d like transparent water.

No need to thank me, bloodhound.
Oh, you didn’t try to thank me.

Having done that, go to events, New Event folder, New Event, Conditional – OK.
New Condition: PAST, put in 0 seconds, or how long after game start that you want waypoint-following to begin.
New Action: CATEGORY – shows GENERAL to start with, but get drop-down to show GROUPS in your case.
In lower ACTION pane, select Group to Waypoint.
Now in…[Read more]
