Found this screenie on the net.

http://www.gamereality.org/Kuvat/renegade/renegade036.jpg

First i thought it was a blood puff, but it didnt look right, looks like the Laser rifle had a muzzle flare, but the question is where did it go???? The rifle and its textures is that of the final version of renegade.

I think you can see this flash when you shoot peoples bodies with one of the SSAOW versions. It might be easy to add but the FPS rate would drop.

Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

FPS drop? i doubt it would be that great a drop, renegade isnt a demanding game, certainly wasent on my olld 64mb card, and its certainly not on my new 256mb card

Might it just be a lucky screencap? Maybe there is a flash, but it's too quick for someone to see. Or they edited it into the picture afterwards.

People constantly make the mistake that older games will always run extremely fast on newer computers no matter what. This isn't true, because older game engines use older methods to get things done and are not optimized for all of the super fast computer parts you see today.

I see it when I shoot people, but I do play in a Dragonade (SSAOW) server most of the time. I do remember seeing it in regular Renegade though; maybe it's not visible on anything less than full detail graphics.

That flash is so terrible. If I used first person on it the flash would give me seizures or something.

That flash is very noticable to me. You guys(or girls) must have bad eyesight.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt
