I created a function that looks like an ion storm to clients.
To fully appreciate it the client needs to have bhs.dll, as I make use of the fog. But it still looks pretty cool without the fog to be honest.
I was going to put this into an AOW mod I was working on, I still might in time, but I really need to take care of some things first.
Here's a link to a movie of it (don't worry about the end credits and such, I couldn't be bothered to re-make the movie).

http://www.mp-gaming.com/reborn/movies/ion_storm.wmv

Here is how I coded the function:

//GDI version

void reb_GDI_ion_storm::Created(GameObject *obj) {

// And he said "let there be weather!"

		Commands->Set_Rain(10.0f,3.5f,true);
	    Commands->Set_Fog_Enable(1);
		Commands->Set_Fog_Range (0.5,55,3.5f);
		Commands->Set_Wind(0.7f,2.0f,1.0f,3.5f);


		char ionstormmsg[128];
		char ionstormmsg2[128];
		Commands->Create_2D_WAV_Sound("m00evag_dsgn0069i1evag_snd.wav");
		sprintf(ionstormmsg,"msg Warning!!!");
		Console_Input(ionstormmsg);
		sprintf(ionstormmsg2,"msg Ion Storm approaching...");
		Console_Input(ionstormmsg2);



		Commands->Start_Timer(obj,this,3.0f,1);
		Commands->Start_Timer(obj,this,4.0f,2);

For testing I called these functions by a chat hook. Obviously you're going to want to call the functions some other way, perhaps a crate, a random weather effect or some other way.
But here is my chat hook for it anyway.


class GDIionstormChatCommand : public ChatCommandClass {
	void Triggered(int ID,const TokenClass &Text,int ChatType) {
		GameObject *obj = Get_GameObj(ID);
		Commands->Attach_Script(obj,"reb_GDI_ion_storm","");
	}
};
ChatCommandRegistrant<GDIionstormChatCommand> GDIionstormChatCommandReg("!iong",CHATTYPE_TEAM,0,GAMEMODE_AOW);

class NodionstormChatCommand : public ChatCommandClass {
	void Triggered(int ID,const TokenClass &Text,int ChatType) {
		GameObject *obj = Get_GameObj(ID);
		Commands->Attach_Script(obj,"reb_Nod_ion_storm","");
	}
};
ChatCommandRegistrant<NodionstormChatCommand> NodionstormChatCommandReg("!ionn",CHATTYPE_TEAM,0,GAMEMODE_AOW);

Sexy.

Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Lol, you even have it set up to hit the buildings, just like in TS. Nice. Oh, I guess you say that in the video, I was just reading through the code.

I love the ion storm in TS.

The reason Uranus is tilted 90 degrees is because god got angry and kicked it over.....

Very nice. If C&C Reborn actually ever comes out, this might add a bit of atmosphere to it.

Lol, you even have it set up to hit the buildings, just like in TS. Nice. Oh, I guess you say that in the video, I was just reading through the code.


Smart arse. ^^

Ah Reborn, I know what you going though, but when you though it, I do hope you get time to make the uber mod you doing, I've looking forward to it.

Now if only the fog could be yellow, the ion effects replaced with lightning bolts, and put on MutationRedux... Also, if this actually gets into C&C Reborn as a crate or a feature of specific maps, remember to make it disable radar and hover/flying vehicles.

Does this damage infantry outside/near the building at the same time?

Perhaps if this was modified to have a quick burst of the ion cannon beam appear with each explosion? - so like a static image of the ion cannon to sort of look like a lighting bolt?

If a player is near the explosion then yes, they will recieve some damage. The explosions do not just happen at the same position as the buildings, I just use the building positions so that it can be used dynamically for any map without having to hard code it for all them.

I'm not sure is there is a bolt like animation that lasts for a second :-/

Ah, if your attaching the script tot he player object and the player dies then the script would get destroyed. But I guess setting the weather functions means they would stay on...
Try attaching the script to an invisible object instead of the player obj.

When the player picks up the crate, use Commands->Get_Postion(obj) on the player to get the player's position. Then Commands->Create_Object("invisible_object", <player's position>) then attach the script to that object. ^,^

The invisible obj can be created anywhere on the map really, doesn't need to be at the players position. You could hard code the spawn location at 0,0,0 if you wanted to...

The weather effects happens globally on the map, but the ion blasts happen around the base building's, not to the player/obj the script is attached to. It wouldn't be too hard to make it happen around random players though aswell...

Is there anyway that the actual animation and emitters used as the "lightning" could be changed and modded to actual lightning? (As well as new sound effects)

I'm taking about in a mod like Reborn, where that sort of thing can actually be made into the game, rather than Renegade where the effects are already there.

Yes. Given the fact that reborn is a total conversion mod it could be done quite easily. Very Happy
