Advisor effect?

slayer20 · 02-02-2008, 03:41 PM

Does anyone know how to make the effect when you get near an advisor?

Like the screen changes color and stuff...It's a really cool effect and I would like to know how to make it.

This is probably an env_screenoverlay.

I would have no idea how the effect is called like you say.

It's done using a combination of env_screenoverlay, env_screeneffect and color_correction entities.
The map with the first advisor encounter is called ep2_outland_07.bsp. I suggest you extract it from episode two maps.gcf with GCFScape and decompile it using VMEX. That way you can see what settings you have to use for the entities.
