The "glowy Swords"

[chatterbug89]

I think the glowy swords isntead of just being colored shoudla ctualy radiate and glow liek there is power goign through it.

They glow. That's radiating power. Yes, I've seen one beacuse Daxon has and Ice Steel two-edged sword. Blue. Shiny. Good enough the way it is.

I jsut got one...I think it woudl be cool if it blinded the whole Map LOL...i am sayign thou it woudl be cool if it kind of moved and glowed like a light.

i agree w/ chatter... they'd be really cool if they had a pulse of energy throbbing through them now and then

[chatterbug89]

The only problem is I dont' thinkt hat is possible with SDL

 

Oh well...i'm just glad i ahve one

 

Also, having gl;owign shilds and what not would be realy cool also..ice and fire Platemail!

Three words: FPS

*sigh* OpenGL only supports up to 6 light sources at once on a screen. So, if 6 people are walking around with swords that are giving off light, and they all go near the same lamppost.... Well, I don't know what would happen, but I'm sure it wouldn't be too good... But they do look sort of like they are glowing anyway, so I don't see a need for change.

EDIT: Oh yeah, FPS is an acronym. If you say 3 words, then why don't you just type out "Frames per second"?

Because it's implied that people reading this thread ALREADY know what FPS means?

It causes after-shadows. And I'm not sure if that's old version, current, or just EL.

--Yeah...that is pretty cool...now, do particles count as light souces or not...that is the question. If not, if we coudl do that to the swords that woudl be awesome.

I think i read somewhere on forum about works on better shadows (programming?) and moving light source so could be possible in future i guess
