w00t for revolver fix - rain doesnt bother me but i knew it did some people so yay i guess - and weather changes hmm? My guess would be the system decending into weather troubles with the extended loss of Sati. Always good to see things in the world according to story SMILEY

The weather always gets screwed up in the Matrix around this time of year...blue sky, transparent rain (<---what a concept SMILEY)

Nice revolver.

I was waiting for the weather changes. SMILEY Good to see 'em.

Also, that's a really errie background, with the transparent rain. I like it.

"...the rain is more transparent..."

I demand royalties. I was the first one to come up with the concept in Bayamo's Useropts Thread about three months ago.

"And because it was raining the today; is there a way to set the transparency of rain drops? I think rain would look better if rain had a 50% opacity or something. Rain drops in-game now look like lines of teal."

...Nevertheless, I am delighted to know about these updates. All is well in Wonderland.

I hate it when it rains in the Matrix - always so gloomy. But I always love getting new weather patterns! Hurricane maybe?

I love the MxO rain; any improvements I would truely enjoy.

Any changes to the weather sounds? I was playing late one night it had been raining hard during the day. I had the in-game music turned off as I'd found it got repetative. I forgot that I had my surround sound on and the base up just the right amount,  I heard some far off thunder. It wasn't until I'd jacked out that I realised that it was the in game audio. As long as the weather changes do not degrade the quality of the audio and if any new audio needs to be implemented, I hope it is of the same quality. Looking forward to seeing what's new....

I'll be happy to see some transparency on the rain ingame.

Hm, I see Walrus brightened the image up a tad, as he is wont to do (he always says my shots are too dark :ppp). A nice thought, but in this case it gives a distorted impression of the gun texture tweak. Here's the larger and unretouched original.

aww now it doesn't look like I spent ages getting the gun right on this sig :'(

anyway nice to finally see the gun looking like it should be, before it looked like sum1 had put wayyyy too much polish on it

Rarebit's is larger and untouched unlike Walrus's (es?). *chuckles*

Very nice, look forward to seeing the new rain.  Rain in the matrix is probably my favourite weather, along with the storm effects SMILEY

I thought it wasn't possible to change weather like the rain because the dev who programmed it left and no-one knew how to change it but maybe I misunderstood where I read that or Rarebit worked it out.

my guess is that the General is going to turn the sky red....like back in beta

I mean, when will the patch come out, around the beginning or middle of march....(eyes of march) *cough*

he says he is going to bring this whole deck of cards down and will enjoy chasing Niobe in the tunnels again

Here is to keeping fingers crossed

I know its Ides of March from Julius Caesar, but back in beta the whole red sky with eyes in them was called the "Eyes of March"

I hopeing it really feels like a Weather CRISIS!!!   like  hurricane, unfortunatly i cant think of how that would be possible. There is no wind in MxO Trees dont blow around, so the cloesest thing i can thing of is maybe they have come up with a new weather effect that look like a hard mixture of rain sleet and snow, maybe blowing sidesways and shifting around.  Add some mean Weather sounds (lots of wind thunder lighting) And bingo, you got bad weather.

Who knows, maybe a special weather effect was created in development stages and has just been sitting around waiting to be used. Could be like the zombies. Walrus said they had been waiting for  chance to put them ingame.

I can see it now, Harsh weather enviroment making it unsafe to be in teh maytricks.
