Portals

Is there anyway to use the new smoke fx for the large furnace as the fx for portals?
[DOUBLEPOST=1441346942][/DOUBLEPOST]I may have a fix im testing now
[DOUBLEPOST=1441349932][/DOUBLEPOST]ok this should fix it but it wont have any smoke effects till they fix that

 

Just woke up. Going to fix it.

 

LaserHydra updated Portals with a new update entry:

1.3.01

 

Thanks LaserHydra! No errors on update

 

is there a limit on how many portals we can have set up? made 20 plus the default, cannot make anymore.

 

there is no limit. You need to find your limit yourself also maybe your limit on one place as they may cause a little lag if too many at the same place

 

is it in any way possible to use water as the portal fx? then it'd look like a stargate.

 

water is not really an fx means I cant use it. Its an World Object, I don't think I can build that. Sorry

 

aww shame, nvm, thanks for the reply.
[DOUBLEPOST=1441553035][/DOUBLEPOST]where would i find a list of all the fx i could use? the smoke fx seems to cause an fps drop for me and my players.
[DOUBLEPOST=1441553168][/DOUBLEPOST]scrap that last question, i didnt realise it had already been asked.

 

LaserHydra, can we try the sparkle effect you showed at the beginning? That would look better on the stargate

 

after 20 it will not add any more. doesnt show smoke and nothing gets added to the config.

 

ill take a look at the code

I see no reason why that should happen

 

so my players were getting a crash to desktop ALOT. Steam: k_EAuthSessionResponseAuthTicketCanceled is what i saw on rcon. disabled portals (with 20 exits 20 entrances) and not one crash to desktop since. 2 hours strong. ill keep it disabled and update if im wrong.

 

Please report again in a couple of hours - I am having the same problem repeatedly on my server too.

Thanks!

didnt stop the error from happening 100% but it did reduce it alot. 18 hours in. 4 CTDs from random players.

 

On what did you put your timer?

 

default. 10 seconds. the smoke lags some people out on crappy computers... might have something to do with it.

 

You could try making it smaller. Using the spacing property

 

i did. it helped. but it was crashing people that weren't even using the portals.. hope we can figure this out. really love this plugin

 

Sorry if this has been anwsered, theres a lot of pages; is there anyway to remove a single portal? Thanx, sick plugin!
