Looks awesome none-the-less


To darkdoom

The technology can make abovewater forests, but they can't be BG trees or non isscrap trees, and i think it'll make some pretty ugly forests, because the placement isn't that advanced.

Maybe it'll work as grass placement... would be kinda useless


yea, having a tree block your shot every few seconds would kinda suck... but it would be good for treehouse base defense stuff. (lol Na'vi Hometree)

I see one major flaw with this mod, the backdrop/frontdrop water cover overs are too large, and when they loop a map they end up being very hard to fill in the gaps correctly

That isn't a major flaw at all. If you have tried filling the gap with one of way to large backdrop/frontdrop you'll notice it'll fit perfectly.

Can't make a gif, but here you can see that they fit perfectly.

Updated again. Made the plants a bit stronger so all the plants don't get destroyed with in a minute. Also made that the plant placer also places sea creatures.

I see it fit perfectly, but on larger resolutions it tends to mess with you :P.

Ah, yes. Water. One of the most difficult elements of a platform based game to conquer in the field of dynamic fabrics and such. For those people saying there will never be water in cortex command, that is far from fact. This is a way early beta for CC, they are planning on making everything such as trees water and rocks (and hopefully dead bodies wont erode) realisticaly dynamic. So dont keep your hopes up about it, but also understand that it may not happen.

This is simply amazing. Though the fact that bullets are made of "Military Stuff" most of the time are not "Lead" may not make sense when it comes to floating and such.
Gonna drop heavy things in the water and see which ones swim the best now :wink:

I know it doesn't make sense, but otherwise nothing would be able to float. Actually are bullets in CC in general quite light. Much lighter than blood, and nearly only shotgun's particles are heavier than blood. I could check if a particle is made of bullet metal, but for now they float on water. Maybe the bullets are some super light sci-fi bullets or something :P

Meh, I wouldnt sweat it, this is one of the closest things to water in cc, a gift if you may developers (I HOPE!) are thinking about the dynamic elements to be put in.

(excuse the double post please this has nothing to do with my post before this one) Are there any premade maps with water already in them? If so please pm me the names. (Aside from exodus.)

I think you need to use the edit button anyway to avoid any conflicts :wink:

For now there isn't made any scenes that uses hydro. Though everyone may use it for their scenes as long as they don't claim the water as their own, but for now you can always just use the terraincutters to cut out a fine little water scene.

If there is a way to make it so it replaces muzzle flashes and explosion sprites with bubbles or something while submerged that should be the next update.

It would make it more realistic and so fire wasn't underwater.

Post subject:  Re: Hydro Plus: Water Mod

I agree with snowmonster.
bubbles ftw!

also, i wonder if you could make the water have a thin layer (i particle thick) of "water" that would splash when you jumped in and out... like dynamic water, but only the top. of course, these particles would be sharpness 0 and would not exist over things in the foreground like bunker peices. idk maybe that is too ambitious... but wouldnt that be awsome?
