Weather Editing

[Rover 59]

Hi everybody!!! I would like to know how to edit the ENVIRONMETSYSTEM.INI file to make modifications to the weather or create new environmental mods. For example increase or decrease the fog, dawn or dusk in a specific time of day, speed and direction of the wind, etc.

 

Thanks!!!

Wind can be set in the mission files or use Kreelin Mission Editor found here at CombatAce. For campaign use, I guess you need the Enviro file's wind section, but I deleted that from my Enviros since I don't do SF campaigns.

 

I do alot of Enviro molding. Link here talks about this ~> http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.p...asc&start=0

 

 

And this old link here, from long ago, talks about how some Envrio stuff works...

Thank you!!! All information is useful. My idea was (for example) to build a new weather mod where the pilot has a limited view of the ground, caused by the fog or (another example) put the clouds at very low altitude. That can be done? Thanks!!!

Yea you can use overcast conditions in KMD mission editor and set the cloud bottom to low levels. That's totally normal stuff the game supports, not the weirdo stuff I'm doing.

I seem to remember that you can have an envriomental ini for a particular terrian; also setting the latitude and longitude in the ***.ini sets things like sunrise/sunset, etc (see DBS and Edward's EAWEuro terrains)

 

Plus the various skymods (Polaks clouds are superb!) for differing types of clouds and stuff
