Screen Effects

[Seraph]

How do I apply an effect like candellight or smoke, without the game freezing?

Thanks.

Sounds like a disc problem to me.

I don't think so. Maybe.

What happens is I examine the event (a barrell) then smoke starts coming out of it. That works, but I can't move my characters around afterward or bring up any menus. At least the animation works.

Re: Screen Effects

This sounds like a problem with your scripting. If the command to display the VFX in an action script or a content script? Did you set the VFX to repeat forever? Have you set the Mark to 0 or 1 so that other actions can take place while the VFX is running?

If the VFX repeats forever, then the Mark needs to be set low and the command must be in an action script. Anything else will cause problems.

Re: Screen Effects

It's a content script and repeat is set to 0. I set it to 0 because I want it to keep the display on (like smoke from a chimney).

I'm going to try what you said, thanks!
