Got a Quick Suggestion? - Small suggestions that don't need their own thread

Black Mesa Archive Suggestion Box
#1601

If I remember correctly, Ram once said that it could be included but was left out, because it would slow down the FPS too much. At least it won’t be in Surface Tension, but maybe in smaller areas?

#1602

I think the words ‘if you want the game to run like a slideshow’ might have been used.

#1603

Just add an option to enable/disable it.

#1604

Why would someone want to enable an effect that will slow down their game to 1 fps?

#1605

How else would you be able to play Black Mesa: Slideshow? :retard:

#1606

Does it REALLY slow down the framerate to 1 fps?

#1607

And more to the point, why should the devs spend time and effort on a feature most people will not be able to use?

[COLOR=‘Red’]Not going to happen.

#1608

This feature was in a HL2 mod Stargate TLS and it was very smooth, so it shouldn’t be so bad.

#1609

If you want it that badly, can’t you add it to the maps after release?

#1610

For real, I actually paid a hell of a lot of money to build my computer so I could run these things. Could this at all be implemented later?

#1611

I think it would just be a particle effect or a shader or something, so as far as I know you can just add it hammer or something. Although I’m no expert and I’m probably wrong… :rolleyes:

#1612

With a broken Zoetrope.

#1613

Sure, if you or someone else does it afterwards.

#1614

But my point is that the mod isn’t open-source, therefore I have no idea what avenues will be available for me to implement it.
[COLOR=’#212121’]Ah, would be good practice for me to take a whack at coding this.

#1615
#1616

You didn’t quote the most important part either. The devs have spoken, and what they said was [COLOR=‘Red’]Not going to happen. Move on.

#1617

Will I be able to select an option that makes ragdolls into props? If not, there should be. I want the dead HEV’s to slam into shelves and cause a domino effect, dammit!

#1618

As far as I know, there’s a console command that does that. something_collide or something of the sort, that causes corpse ragdolls to be able to stack, hit each other, etc. without falling through each other.

#1619

Yeah, but it doesn’t make them collide with other props.

#1620

I thought they collided with props anyways…?
