smoke grenade

does anyone have a tutorial on how to make a smoke grenade?

hmmm... I'm not sure, but possibly you could just null out the explosion on the frag gernade and add some smoke effect...

that solves part of my problem. part 2: how do i extent the time that the smoke lasts

I'm sure there's a way to do it using hex editing, but I don't know what code to edit.
You can most likely do it with eschaton as well...

I'VE GOT IT!

Ok, open your map in eschaton and go to the particles tags.

Click what ever smoke you used (i did frag gernade/effects/drifting smoke)

Go to main -> floating point numbers in the meta editing window

Click on lifespan and edit that to whatever you want!

Theres also lots of other stuff in there that you can edit which can make the smoke even cooler, and i'm pretty sure theres some way to change it's color!

thanks that helped a lot

I hope you guys don't mind but I'm going to see if I can do that, and put it on an xbox modd

hmmm... i have no clue how to make xbox mods but go ahead!

yeah different coding

2 problems

the smoke is way to thin and it keeps drifting away

i have no idea how to fix that other that using a differnent smoke effect...

Make it really large so it doesn't matter if it drifts away, maybe?

you can't edit stuff like that on a mac... i think

i tried that but it deluted the smoke so that it was barly visible

rawr... did you try using a different effect?

yes but it kept getting lighter
i think it might have something to do with the bitmaps
here is a link to a mod with a working smoke grenade(halo mac demo)
http://mac.clanhalo.net/index.php?page=mods its the coliseum mod on this page just throw a plasma nade

in timby, dep swap the waterfall spray effect.

that may work in timberland but what about the other maps

import the waterfall effect into the map?

so far i havent been able to get any of the effects to work, but i did make a weird plasma nade

I sorta got that working on the xbox lol, just have a hard time getting more smoke, think I know how but....
I'll post a pic if I can get it to work, good luck with your pc one

you know you have been gone for a long time if there is a post in the "Modding Help" section.

yes lol
