#1487: About monsters lurking in the dark....

by Steini on 05/16/2003 18:24

Have you ever dreamt about monsters lurking in dark corners and no chance for the player to see them...

I tried to manage this in cube and I succeded :) Now monsters and other players can hide in dark corners and will also be affected by dynlight effects. Imagine a bauul in a dark room fireing a rocket and you can see him only in that moment because the rocket lightens the room. I also decidet that the hudguns should also follow the lights in the map.

For now I've only a Windows binary for you, but I'll offer the source soon.

Also I added a new command /dynrange 0..256 where you can decide how far dynlight-effects should be computed. If you choose 32 for example every dynlight effect beyond 32 cube away from you will not be computed and so you should have a better fps. I also achieved a smoother and cleaner glow-effect by removing any randomness from the light-routines.

Have a try...

Every other game has that. It's a powerful technique but there's something to be said for not having to hurt your eyes trying to pick out stuff on a dark screen.

I haven't checked it out yet, but I assume this entity lighting includes colored lighting? Normal Cube gives you extra ability to use colored lights without it being excessive since they don't affect entities -- especially helpful when sticking to the default textures. What I was thinking is derive a white light value based on the intensity of colored lights.

Tried an earlier version. Neat and no problems but very dark with existing maps, I guess divergence from anything made for a different engine version is expected though.
