cg_gibs ?

[secret]

hello

somehow the cg_gibs 0 command has no effect on q3mme anymore. I'd like to see the dead corpse instead of the exploding gibs.
Is there any possibility to achieve that?

I have no clue
Nobody ever asked for that. If the corpse does not take too much damage then there will be no gibs. Like let's say the player gets to -2 health, then there will be a corpse.

I don't know how to achieve that there will be no gibs at all.

usually in q3 the command cg_gibs 0 makes sure no corpse explodes. if I remember right it worked for some older mme too...
well, too bad
not even removing the gib part from the fx script helped... grml

maybe an idea for beta 27?

[foksie]

at most you can just remove the gibs, leaving you with a empty space.

as for having the model remain, i dont think that is doable in the new .fx script system.

it might be, if you can call the model override... but its a far fetch.

I really dislike the new bloodtrail gibs effects which is present since mme version 1.6 (beta 26)

Could somebody tell me if there is a command to switch the gibs effect back to q3 standart, or what would be the code to enter in the "base_player.fx" to bring it back to standart effect?

something like:

//Explode the body into gibs
//input: origin, velocity

....

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Try this, should look a bit better.

//Explode the body into gibs
//input: origin, velocity
player/gibbed {
repeat 21 {
//Huge list of different body parts that get thrown away
modellist loop {
models/gibs/abdomen.md3
models/gibs/arm.md3
models/gibs/chest.md3
models/gibs/fist.md3
models/gibs/foot.md3

models/gibs/intestine.md3
models/gibs/leg.md3
models/gibs/leg.md3
models/gibs/skull.md3

}

//aim v0 in random direction, giving more height to upwards vector and scale add to velocity

This was exactly what i was looking for foksie!
Thank you so much!
