DumbSCRIPTguy Posted June 7, 2005 Ok, I just got hang on EDGE DDF, and I want a weapon that's like a railgun. It fires a beam not a projectile. I hae tried done this with projectile but it just looks like a blue shit travelling through the air, no, i want a beam weapon, anybody knows how this can be done? 0 Share this post Link to post
andrewj Posted June 7, 2005 There is no good way to do this with EDGE since it doesn't have any code for drawing beam weapons (rail gun) like ZDoom has. 0 Share this post Link to post
wildweasel Posted June 7, 2005 I'm not sure that it's what you want at all, but I did something similar with a fast-moving projectile in WW-DI.WAD (the silenced rifle on Slot 3 has an alt fire that acts like this). The projectile has the TUNNEL flag applied to it so it goes through enemies, and I think I raised the speed up to 100 (or higher). I applied a trail effect with a long lifespan to reinforce the "rail" effect. 0 Share this post Link to post

wildweasel Posted June 9, 2005 If you're interested, you could always download the WAD, as I don't keep archived code. The weapon replaced here is the Super Shotgun (alt-fire it to get the Rail effect). 0 Share this post Link to post
Chrono_T Posted June 9, 2005 Speaking of which, zombies make the best deathsound when killed by the rail. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
