I have been to Hazelshade before but I must have traipsed through a bit too quickly- I'd assumed that those were water brushes with improved textures and the sloshing sounds removed. They're quite obviously not. Really brilliant effect! I'm surprised more FM authors don't tinker with it. I suppose this adds to a mission's brush/item counts... :erg:

Actually it's a little different than you're thinking Albert - what I used in AA1 is a particle effect. This is NV's effect in action:

Holy shit, that looks awesome!:wot: The water looks nice... did you use a new bitmap for the water then? (Doesn't look like the old thief 2 water.)

Thanks Sneaksie :) That's actually Eshaktar's water from Broken Triad :thumb:

I thought it was NV's fog texture from Hazelshade?

Ah, I haven't played broken triad....

Hey, what happened to my last (serious) post on this thread claiming my idea?! :mad:
The faux-bump map trick using low-poly bumps on bricks like the 3d-ish walls in doom 3... yeh, that post meant something to me. Why did the mod delete it?!
It sounds like a cool (yet sorta impractical) trick for slip to use in the eponymous project.

I think that post was in the Ashen Age thread. As nice as it would be it's not possible as far as I know - maybe with ddfix? Probably far out of gamut for what Dark can do.

Hmm, I have awful memory, been busy...
Probably yeah, but if ode (opendarkengine) ever were to be finished, that would be the first thing for me to try out...

The fog on top is NV's Hazelshade technique - but I just made the fog patches myself in photoshop (I think he did the same thing).
