Re: [hlcoders] Muzzle flash showing in every view space.
Seems I got it, there is a second CTempEnts::MuzzleFlash which is maked as
obsolete and for some reason is still working except for CS. Once I got rid
of it that ghost muzzle is gone. A few days wasted in this, how hard is the
coder's life :D. Thank you for your time guys, I really appreciate it.
//-
// Purpose: Play muzzle flash
// Input : *pos1 -
// type -
//-
void CTempEnts::MuzzleFlash( const Vector& pos1, const QAngle& angles, int
type, ClientEntityHandle_t hEntity, bool firstPerson )
{
#ifdef CSTRIKE_DLL
return;
#else
//NOTENOTE: This function is becoming obsolete as the muzzles are moved over
to being local to attachments

I wish it's some model issue because I'm not aware of any modification in
the muzzle filtering, and I'm the only one messing the source code. Also
take in mind, as I said in first message, this issue doesn't happen in our
rifles/shotguns, they use CTempEnts::MuzzleFlash_Shotgun_
There could be something broken in CTempEnts::MuzzleFlash_Pistol_, but that
got discarded once I checked that pistols using shotgun muzle code keep
failing. Don't know if I should check something more, but our code is pretty
much default in every thing else related to muzzle events.
Well, let's see if some additional checking in our weapon models solves this
issue. This is also odd because the same guy that made some working models
should know how to do the rest. I did some testing myself, tried with HL2MP
357 but couldn't see the world model for some reason, so that test was
inconclusive.

Forsaken had that issue before, it turned out to be a problem with the
actual models. If I recall, it was how the parent bones were setup as well
as the bone/attachment orientations for the muzzle effect.
If that isn't it, what Minh said about the effect not being filtered could
be the problem.

hmm that is very weird. So basically, another player fires, and a
muzzleflash sprite gets created on every player, not just the one doing the
firing...
Seems like the dispatcheffect is not being filtered properly (ie. your
sending the muzzleflash event to the wrong clients). It's really hard to
tell without seeing your code.

Okay, this is even better than a screenshot. I made a small video where the
issue can be seen quite well. Hope it helps you:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/m55otq
That "ghost" muzzle cannot be seen in world view, and it doesn't spawn
exactly in weapon's muzzle attachment. If character ducks that muzzle keeps
showing in the same coordinates, it doesn't modify its position if player
doesn't move.
That test was made with a modified c_te_legacytempents file which produces
more smoke but the muzzle issue happens the same with default c_te file.
That's important because thats the place where muzzle sprites are created
AFAIK, so default code makes the same effect.

DoMuzzleFlash() doesn't actually create the sprite on the screen. As far as
I can tell, it sets a parity bit on an entity.
Why dont you take a screenshot to show us what your problem is. If you're
having problems capturing muzzleflashes (since they happen so fast). Just
use the command
host_timescale 0.1
That will slow down the game to 10% of the normal speed.

Re: [hlcoders] Muzzle flash showing in every view space.
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] This might have something to do with the fact that there are TWO events that are responsible for creating the muzzleflash. One of the events is embedded in the view model's primary attack sequence. The 2nd event is embedded inside the world model (w_357.cpp) Check to make sure you are not calling both.. I have a similar problem when I switch to third person mode and I fire my gun. Both events get called and I can see two muzzle flashes. - Original Message - From: "Ryan Sheffer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, March 07, 2007 9:43 AM Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Muzzle flash showing in every view space. > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > We had this problem and fixed it, it was long ago though and I cant > remember.
