Is there a function to turn off gibs, but still have blood? Thanks in advance.

nope..gibs and blood are controlled by the same setting i believe..

You could replace the gibs with other models on a file by file basis. This would allow you to have confetti, popcorn, whatever.

Look in settings - misc - advanced settings - cl_particles_blood
Change that value to 1

I also would recommend that you look through GreEn`mArine's excellent Nexuiz In-Depth.

Please don't. Local/dev use, fine, but show some respect and play Nexuiz "as-is-vanilla" online, if its not on a modified server already plox.

you can always use 'turn off gore effect' in the effects menu...the result looks a little homo, but..

Well, i still want blood, but no gibs. As those cause more lag.

replacing all the models as 0 byte files (right click >> new textfile >> rename) with the same name. I'm not sure if this would be replaced with the infamous "diamond" thingy or nothing though.

cl_particles_blood 1 is already on. And i dont see any gibs or blood.

well here's the answer to my idea above:

Code: Select all

cd /path/to/nexuiz
cd data/models/gibs
mkdir backups
for file in $(find -regex .*md[3l]); do mv $file backups && touch $file; done

so looks like it has to be replaced

lol

Code: Select all

cd /path/to/nexuiz
cd data/models/gibs
for file in $(find -regex .*md3); do cp ../shotorg_adjuster.md3 $file; done
for file in $(find -regex .*mdl); do cp ../bullet.mdl $file; done

You can replace with any models, in this case, you see that little shot origin instead . If this works for you, here's a pack http://z.nexuizninjaz.com/patches/repla ... erfect.pk3

I'm not a modeler so I couldn't make a simple small shape to replace it with but maybe someone else will for you.

Ok, i will try this. Thanks.

Wow, it made Nexuiz crash.

crash how?? on open? after dying a lot? what?


I tested the pack in a vanilla build of latest svn and all went fine.

Well, i killed myself and, after i died i just saw blood, and then i looked around a bit, and then.. crash.

EDIT: null.md3 is even better :p
EDIT2: and I believe you can even use it for .mdl, the extensions don't matter I think.

Also, what if the directory hierarchy is inexistant? Hmm..

I figured this was the 'diamond' (what's the real shape name? I forget)

I was unsure about this. I'm a modeling n00b.

what? no one should be running those commands that doesn't understand what's going on


btw, perhaps we should make a script to replace the models randomly ^_^. Omg I died and plane came out!

Gibs and blood are controlled by the same setting i believe..
