Using Custom Effects in SF2

I got to say, This one stumped Me for a while. But I've got to give Brian32 Credit in pointing Me in the right Direction. This may be a Long Post, And after a while, A Moderator might want to move it to the Knowledge Base after We see Results on Members different Set-up's.

 

First of all, I thought it might be a thing that was DX10 versus DX9c Problem or the Type of OS. But after thinking on it futher, It's not at all. I reflected on how the Sea-Water Effect worked on My XP Install after some Adjusting. The Water.fx Plug-in was there and eventually worked. So, this eliminated that Theory.

 

Next, I started looking at the New ParticleSystem.INI and noticed that each Material had a Effects Plug-In with the .fx extension. This is where Brian32 stated He was getting Effects to work by adding the .fx Line to the Material of an Effect.

 

So, I thought to Myself. Well, How come some Effects are working and some not. I found the Answer......

 

The Effects that work are Copies of existing Effects that use nothing more than another Texture called out. I.E. Afterburners and such....

 

So, How about Custom Effects like Nuke, WP and others......Well, Let's look at the Old Entries of WilliePete "Red" for a Minute. I was testing it and noticed small Flashes when it Hit, But no Effect. That told Me that the MissileObject.INI was working. So let's look at the "Old" WP "Red" Entries:

Now for the clintcher. Each "Custom Effect" indicated above, has to have the Plug-in associated with it's Material to show.

 

If it's a Copy of an existing Effect......It doesn't need the Line..... It works off the Default first in the ParticleSystem.INI that already has the Line in it....

 

 

Now lets see some "BOOM"!

 

Semper Fi!

BTW, TK Stated that We shouldn't have to edit the MissileObject.INI......Just make the Effect and tie it to a Weapon in the Weapons Editor.

Oh yhea.....What do You see here? Just a part of them. Located in the ParticleSystem.INI of SF2 and SF2V....

But then again, I could be a Blind Old Man.......

 

 

You can add Entries to the MissileObject.INI to call out "Special Sounds" or make "Special" Effects. No one said that You couldn't. It's just as TK said there's no need to unless You have to. That's all....

Hey KB, this is looking like the effects robbing culprit. About half way through the post my eyes started to glaze over.....huh? Good find. I think I'll wait until people with the proper knowledge can beat this beast into submission.

You're right KB, apart from the chaff ([ChaffMaterial2]

EffectShaderName=effectChaff.fx), only those lines are used again and again. So it's a case of some trial and a lot of error I guess! I wish there weren't so many possible permutations, only two lines to choose for each material but hundreds of materials to test.. this will be a long week.

All Effects wether "Stock" or "Custom" are in some sort a way, based off a "Stock" Effect. So it goes to reason, If Your Effect represents a Smoke like Effect.....You'd want to use a Plug-in that the "Stock" Smoke is using. Same goes for "Fire"..Debris, Wake....and so on....

Each Effect is made up of "Elements". Each "Element" is a Effect or Emitter that is put together to make an overall Effect. If that Effect or Emitter calls out a "Material", Add the proper Plug-in best associated with the Type of Effect....

Here's the other Plug-in.....There's only 3.... effectChaff.fx

 

 

There's either a Lighting Plug-in, Color Plug-in or Chaff Plug-in.....And that one only applies to Chaff....

Now for the Why? They are DX10 Plug-in's from the DX10 Library that will run on DX9c and 9c only of the 9 Series.....

 

9c will run them.....But run smoother and clearer on DX10. What they were intended for.......

 

.fx= Graphic Effects.

Nothing. Not one flash or puff of smoke. This is what really does my head in about moding/tweaking is that on my weak lametop system, it takes 3-4 minutes to get into game from desktop, anywhere between 5 and 10 minutes at the loading screen and then another 5 minutes or so to close the game back down to desktop all so as to change one line in an ini and get back in and try again. My next guess would be to select all colour fx for those materials, from what little I remember from math at school, where repetition is allowed n = the number of choices (two lines), r = repetition (in this instance 6 materials) and total permutations = n to the power of r.... only another 62 tries left after that. There must be a quicker way. edit: I knew my maths was bad, but not that bad!

Nuke Plume looks like another Effect....I'll have to look at all the other Emitters to be sure they don't call out any Material.......AircraftFireySmokeEmitter is another I'll have to look at......Or if they even exist anymore. May have to be recreated.

I feel your pain!!! !! ! I have nothing but total respect for you hardcore contributors to the community, I wish there was some easy way to do things like, alt tab out of the game, change what you want and then back in... but alas nooo. However, did you consider this for weapon testing... a fake aircraft, basically just a huuuuge mile long wing with hardpoints all along and a stable fm, nothing fancy, the idea being you could load up like one of each weapon under it, as much as it is long, and that way you can test what shows up a looot quicker? Just an idea from a tired, clapped out mind.

I completely forgot about the elements! Oh dear.... this will take a very, very long time indeed. Thankfully my significant other is in another country, or right now she would be throwing my lametop out of the window. Something tells me it will be a soul destroying process unless.... :idea: How about we ask the man himself for some pointers on when to use light or colour? Worth a shot I suppose.

LOL.....I understand.

 

But for the Nuke Effect. Here's the "Read Me" from TMF. They were Deuces Effects, But they added this at the Top:

 

*** ADDUM ***

 

to avoid conflict with some stock effets, the Mirage Factory have rename effets files

 

*** end of ADDUM ***

 

 

Maybe all the additions of the WP_ are messing up the Nukes? Maybe?

Could well be, especially now that the engine seems to be case sensitive in such things. I overlooked them at first, thinking wp was for Willie Pete! Same with Lexx's nuke effects having ww in front. I had a look at Lexx's effect inis and they call for tgas that also have the ww addition so I hesitate to rename everything, but possibly we might have to rename the master effect ini, LKT300effect.ini instead of ww-LKT300.ini for example, and likewise in the weapon editor, presumably it needs to state LKT300effect if that is the name of the effect ini we want it to use.

I afraid to say it.....But in that case. You'll have to try it one Effect at a Time. Adding them all to the "Effects" File, then trying to sort them out, may create more Conflicts with each other trying to sort them all out. Since I've got the Weapons in. I've loaded up the "Range" in SF2......I'm going to use this approch. Starting off with a fresh "Effects" Folder and working on one Effect at a Time. Once I've got it working....I go into the Weapons Editor and add it to the Weapons that use it. I'll start working on it Tonight....Put My other Mods on hold for alittle Bit....

These I've found not working:

Any Nuke Effects

Leaflet Effect

Any Willie Pete Effects...

 

All others seem to be working. Still testing though....

LOL...it looks like the OFFLINE Forum killed the fix for this.

 

The fix was posted by TK on his board. All that is needed is to add the "effect" to the specific weapon data ini.

 

For example from the Mk40_Hydra_M156 data ini

 

add this code to the end of the data ini

 

[WpRocketEffects]

EffectShaderName=twColor1.fx -----------------------------< this may not be needed >

GroundHitEffectName=WilliePeteGroundExplosion

GroundHitSoundName=SmallExplosion.wav

WaterHitEffectName=MediumRocketWaterHitEffect

WaterHitSoundName=

ObjectHitEffectName=WilliePeteGroundExplosion

ObjectHitSoundName=SmallExplosion.wav

ArmorHitEffectName=MediumRocketAirExplosion

ArmorHitSoundName=SmallExplosion.wav

CraterModelName=

CraterType=1

 

Once you do that, go and test the weapon. It should show the WP effect.
