That's awesome great stuff!

I know I post in this thread a lot, but I figure my doom or quake buddies will get a kick out of this one.

As I've posted on the Discord, I made this model quite awhile ago, but it was for a Half-Life mod. I wasn't happy with the final model, and so instead of deleting it, I've given it new life in Turok. The textures still need work but I think its gonna be pretty cool. I'm a bit worried about the animations as well but I can figure that out later.

I need to study it more, but I know that it can change colors, I am not sure if it depends on the sprite the particle uses, or if that is simply ignored. It uses a mixture of the white color and black color settings to control the colors.

I am not sure if the lighting value itself can be brighter or darker and I need to test more.

I don't think negative values could work, and there is no directional lighting at all, as it covers the entire world space.

I also don't think it fades in/out smoothly. I suspect this same color/lighting system was used for the spiritual invincibility, which DOES smoothly transition.

So yeah, a lot more testing is required, I'll test out some of your direct questions and see how it goes.

Posted this on the Discord but I'm posting it here now, figured you guys would get a kick out of this.

I've made fake lighting for guns, by using the bflash variable on particles. This variable makes the entire screen light up to simulate lightning. It can also be controlled in a few other ways like colors, so I'll be adding onto this later.

I am going to try and find more ways to control it. Besides guns, explosions, and lightning, I think the next best use would be for flood lights. Like you're in a small room with tons of red emergency alarms, or perhaps in a lava filled area.

Just a small update on that Spas 12. I've added new sounds and animations. I won't be showing it off again for awhile as I don't wanna spam this channel and rather surprise everyone with a big update.

I've really been on a roll recently.

I'm working on a project I consider pretty important for Turok right now. I'm taking the open-source Rocket Launcher 2.0 and adding full support for Turok. Later on I will be adding Turok 2 and Forsaken.

Why do I consider this so important? Several reasons.

First, there is no good way to control mod load order for Turok. The steam workshop works off your subscription date, and GOG players must use the mods folder, which loads in alphabetical order. Rocket Launcher gives us the ability to load mods in any order we want. This means that mods that require compatibility patches, or unofficial patches, or tweaks, are all fully possible now, because you can control their order.

Second, it provides a mod launcher for GOG players, I am not aware if the GOG editor has any kind of mod launcher. So I consider this important for them.

So, I think having an "official" launcher for Turok will be a huge benefit to everyone, and of course I plan on putting my code on github soon.

This is very important, yeah, we already having mods which require other mods loaded, as well as needing load order to combine mods so that they do not overwrite each other.

Please keep us updated, need this to see the light of day.
