This file needs to be placed into '''''../data/config/''''' directory.

Contains an '''ordered''' list of animations. First defined effect gets ID number 1, second gets ID number 2 and so on. These ID numbers are used in '''Detonation Effects:''' and '''Flash Effect:''' entries to define the desired animations.

New version of the flashy deaths effect by Wanderer. You may wish to check out the script's thread on HLP.

Please note that this script requires two additional files in .cfg format whose specs can be found below.

NOTE THAT .CFG FILES GO TO DATA/CONFIG DIRECTORY

Table Entry

We'll call this deto-sct.tbm - it needs to be placed into ../data/tables/ directory.

expl_flashes.cfg

This file needs to be placed into ../data/config/ directory.

Please note that the following list isn't complete yet.

  • Name: defines the ship for which this entry is made for
  • Detonation Radius Multiplier: defines the multiplier applied for the radius (base radius) of the detonation effects
  • Detonation Effects: list of ID values of the effects (defined in the other cfg file), may have multiple ones
  • Detonation Multiplier: multiplier which controls the amount of explosions triggered. 0.2 is 80% decrease, 1.2 is 20% increase
  • Flash Radius Multiplier: defines the multiplier applied to the radius of the flash when ship actually goes away
  • Flash Effect: ID values of the flash effect, as listed in line order entry in additional cfg
  • Blinding Effect Intensity: value from 0 to 100, sets the intensity of the blinding effect - requires flash effect to be defined
  • Blinding Effect Duration: sets the duration of the blinding effect in milliseconds
  • Blast Effect Delay: sets the base time for flash & blinding effect to appear in milliseconds
  • Blinding Effect Distance Multiplier: defines the multiplier applied to the blinding effect attenuation distances

exp_ani_flashes.cfg

This file needs to be placed into ../data/config/ directory.

Contains an ordered list of animations. First defined effect gets ID number 1, second gets ID number 2 and so on. These ID numbers are used in Detonation Effects: and Flash Effect: entries to define the desired animations.

Filename: EXP_flash
Filename: exp04
Filename: exp05

Notes

As stated above the shiplist isn't complete yet, meaning that the destruction of any ships other than the ones specified in the current expl_flashes.cfg will not trigger any effect.
