Force Redux Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) As the title says, can we have an option with no SFX special effects at all? Constant misting and or cloud effects even with the darkest colors still is obtrusive.

Rudra Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Yeah, this works for me. You've got my support. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidge Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 The current Group Fly visual effects also makes travel in maps/zones with ambient darkness (e.g. Echo Dark Astoria) terrible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greycat Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Trying to think if the radius of the effect has any relation to the radius of the power, which I can't recall right offhand - might want some sort of alternate in that case. (I want to say it doesn't, though as I recall it also has a duration - or had one until recently - which could be throwing off that impression.) If that's not the case, can't really think of anything that might be a downside. (Of course, you'd also just get used to the power, so... *shrug*) Still not particularly fond of certain segments of this community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force Redux Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 @Greycat correct the effect is much smaller than the radius which is pretty huge. @Force Redux on Everlasting ----- (read my guide) ----- Gather the Shadows: A Dark Miasma Primer for Masterminds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oubliette_Red Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 While it would be nice to have a No SFX or even an alternate SFX option in the CC, you can get around it my changing it yourself in your game folder. Just need a 1 sec silence.ogg to then rename to the appropriate SFX file name and drop it in the correct sub-folder in your data\sounds\ogg\ location. Example, the fly SFX listed below would go into data\sounds\ogg\powers sub-folder. If you've added mods, then you should already have a data folder, if you have not modified any sounds, then you'd have to create the rest of those sub-folders. Folder name: powers File names: air_loop.ogg, Flight1.ogg, Flight_loop.ogg, Flight1_loop.ogg, Flight2_loop.ogg, Flight3_loop.ogg, Groupfly_loop.ogg, Hover_loop.ogg 1 Dislike certain sounds? Silence/Modify specific sounds. Looking for modified whole powerset sfx? Check out Michiyo's modder or Solerverse's thread. Got a punny character? You should share it.

Force Redux Posted June 17 Author Share Posted June 17 Sorry I meant sfx as in special effects not sound effects. I don't mind the sound of group fly it's the graphics that had a misty overlayer no matter how dark you color it. 1 @Force Redux on Everlasting ----- (read my guide) ----- Gather the Shadows: A Dark Miasma Primer for Masterminds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try flying through Echo: Dark Astoria with any of the ice armor or fire armor powers active. I've taken to flying with the Forward and Up keys held down, and the character tipped down so their path is horizontal, just to get the particle trail to not fill my screen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
