MovieMod - Soon to be Released

[Why?!]

Returning to my effects roots from Battlefield 1942, I have started playing around with the effects. The editor makes effects so much easier than the old way. However some effects cause the editor to crash and those are the ones that are taking awhile as I have to do them the old fashioned way.

Anyway this little minimod is called MovieMod, after the "somewhat" exaggerated effects of Hollywood movies. I feel that this mod really adds to the tension of the firefight, as you can visually see where the fighting is. The air gets filled with smoke coming from the weapons, and the dust that gets kicked up by bullets lingers in the air.

Obviously this is not something that is easily shown in pictures, so I have 4 videos along with 4 pictures.

Suggestion: Make explosions movie-like. Gigantic fireballs and such.

I'm still working on this. For the time being I changed the maps to spawn 0 vehicles. No vehicles at all are in this mod (although only for Oman and Karkand.) The reason there are no vehicles is because I want to get all infantry related effects done, then I will release. Eventually I hope to redo every effect in the game, or at least the important ones.

Another note: I know for a fact that this mod cannot stand alone. There are no gameplay modifications whatsoever (except for making the LMGs slightly more accurate). I am hoping that a mod, or two will pick it up and implement it into their mods.

Re: MovieMod - Soon to be Released

those videos look impressive.
As long as those smoke effects don't lag things up too much

I hope a mod will use it. Seems like everyone's going realism crazy at the moment. Would be good to have something a bit different.
Good luck with it!

Little update:

I finished the grenade effect. With something as cool looking as this I may have to up the grenade radius :p

Of course I have both a video and picture.
