MREL - Devins Flags, Transparent edges, Marzy's Textures


Devin Kryss
05-08-2003, 03:28 PM
So, i once 1.0 came out, I hated its flags. So the first thing I did was use those cool wavey ones from OpFor. I asked Marzy if I could release with his textures, he said yes, but i waited a bit, for the new compiler. Seems he beat me to releasing the wavey flag part, but Ive gone and made frayed edges for the one I converted, makes the flags feel war torn and stuff.

*edit* Sorry, forgot to mention, British flag is included, but not shown in the pictures*edit*


You know the drill, don't diss my host.

WHat did I say about my host absent?

You're lucky you have a chance to get the damned file. If your too stupid to sign up for something, with a phony email at hotmail, than just go away.

05-08-2003, 03:42 PM
devin those are awesome any chance i can get a union jack, the german one you have and an allied green one in one pack?? if so i would be very thankful :D P.S. this is sigurdson from the old forums :D and i am patiently awaiting your new models :cool: :cool: :D

Nice one Devin, i think you have used the old model though that screws the textures up a little. Maybe you should take the link down and redo them with the fixed model, which you can get here

You can see the diffrence in this pic.

I guess it's upto you m8, but i think they would look better IMO.

Funny thing is, i just posted a thread about me expermenting with rips and tears 30 secs before you posted this one up....lol

Thats jsut a really ungrate ful thing to say. Me and Editor go through the trouble of trying to release this, and you go and be complete jackass, telling me my host is crap.

Its not crap, its just not newb-friendly. You're obviously too incompetent to handle this complex system of clicking and user-names, so I'll help you out.

Step 1: Sign up for a new hotmail account. Call it whatever the **** you want. It doesnt matter at all.

Step 2: Sign up for a gamespy account or whatnot with your brandnew hotmail account. Remember your password.

Step 3: Gamespy will send you some dopey confirmation email, and it will send it to the hotmail account you supplied. Receive the mail, click that confirm ****, and your gamespy account is now validated.

Step 4: When asked to sign in for any gamespy stuff, supply your "username" thats that hotmail accounts address, and your password.

Step 5: Never ever check that stupid hotmail account. After 2 weeks of inactivity, hotmail will deelte your account. But your gamespy username and password are still perfectly viable. Any junkmail Gamespy treis to send you will be sent to an address that doesnt exist. So if you're really some kind of revolutionary loser, your fuxking both companies at the same time.

I've decided not to flame you, but I feel obligated to point out the fact that your an obnoxious troll. I asked not to hear this tired "Im a fuxking IDIOT!!! Gamespy si teh hard for meh!!! WTF0rz DO 1 s1gn up forz!!!!111OMGLOLZ!!111"
I asked not to hear it, cause it pisses me off, it pisses Editor321 off, and it only makes you look like a bungling newb. Seriously. I ask not to hear it, and the 5th post or so is another jabbering assmonkey who has his head so far between his cheeks, he could lick the back of his tonsels.

And have a nice day.

Whered you get the crosshair in the original post?

Devin Kryss
05-08-2003, 04:08 PM
Thats the default crossair.

If you have flag textures you want to use, you can just add the color 0 0 255 (pure blue) to them and add them to my flag models. They will be transparent.

Do you just put the blue texture onto a model to make it transparent?

Or is there more to it?

WOW! I never thought of that with transparencies!

I dont know what you people are talkign about with doing this to the Brit flag. Did you not read my first post? Theres a Brit flag in there. Its got the cool ripped edges too. IF fact, theres TWO brit flags in there. FLags.mdl ahs all 4 types of flags, and you cna flip through the submodels to see all 4. Then theres w_bflag.mdl. A BIG, BRITISH, FLAG.

Great job Devin! I'm gonna use these for now. FP is no big deal, what is that dude's problem?
Devin, any chance you could make the ripped and torn look on these? You can grab them in the zip: I will gladly host them for you, if you'd like.

That's some dead sexy, Devin. Thanks for showing it's possible. I've been wanting to make my own for ages, though. :D

Devin Kryss
05-08-2003, 08:03 PM
Its one thing to get good or bad reactions on the actualy material, its quite another story to hear the same whining and stupid complaining about fileplanet. Seems the legions of confused bumbling zombies that cant cope with a website is growing exponentially. Geuss i'll hafta stock up on ammo, before they come break down my door demanding a mirror that doesnt involve more than two clicks of a mouse, or something that isnt classified "Teh Gh3y".

Criticize the work, I welcome it. Criticizing a means of accessing the said work is only a means of asserting ones own incompetence.

Dodge
05-08-2003, 08:18 PM
lol ok anyways... i see the british flag now, any chance you can do a canadian one Devin please, and not the new mapleleaf flag the older one thanks.


on another note, Fileplanet works fine for me.

Devin Kryss
05-08-2003, 08:21 PM
Yeah, sure thing. Got a picture of the flag you want?

Editor321
05-08-2003, 08:23 PM
Lets End this now,

I don't appeciate being refered to as "Teh Ghey" or whatever. I find it stressful and hard to put up with, and on some days down right retarded. Hate FP to hell, but keep it to yourself. Nor do my "Clients" like it. Be considerate. I've dealt with 5 of ya, each 1 worse than the last. I find it really down grading to have some1 release something or myself, and theres no feedback just complaints about the hosting. Thats pretty much Thread Hi-Jacking and im pretty sure the "Clients" dont like it. Especially Devin over here you has to put up with it.

I'm starting to think its not worth the trouble I have to put it with. Some times ive thought of to stop offering hosting. But I wont unless the situation gets totally out of control, but keep it in mind.

Read Devins Posts they have too much truth

One question though, what do you hope to gain by posting something like that?

Im done, and I hope you flamers and Thread Hi-Jackers are too

PS: This doesnt have anything to do with OFM :) he didnt make me mad, you know who you are

Truer words were never spoken. The man has feelings too.

Seems this has spilled over to page 3, so my Kung Fu-like roastage and biting sarcasm in response to OFM is on the bottom of page 2, in case you wanted to hear it.

But back to flags. Lets try and stay there too. I have the SS flag done, use HLMV to import it over the german texture. And dodge, show me the flag, I will make it a bmp for you.

05-08-2003, 08:55 PM
Can you guys just shut the hell up about Fileplanet and stop trying to hijack the thread? If you don't like the host, don't download it. FP works fine for some, and others hate it like the plauge. If the flags aren't already mirrored on different sites then they will be soon.

These are a really clever idea for a flag replacement. Though I'm wondering if the troops would still try to follow the rules of the flag and retire their flags when they got that beat up, or if (more likely) they'd just say '**** it' and keep it up anyways?

Devin, sorry, I didn't see your post until now. But, you nailed it! I wanted the flag without the arrows in the corners and I just dl'd your zip and see that's the one you did. So, thanks again! I have your ripped and torn flags in my game now, I'm keeping them in, they are so cool!:) If you do have some more free time soon, it would be cool if you also did the one with the arrows in the corners as well. I may use it down the line sometime, and others here might want to use it as well, but I'll leave it at your convience. Thanks again man!

You say what I want.
Dissing FilePlanet in a thread about a release is off-topic and offers no constructive contribution to the issue.

So I've taken the liberty of cleaning up the thread.
Still feel that you can say whatever you want?

Not exactly. When amrzy released his 256 flags, I then just upped the rez, and fixed the mesh problem myself. So yes, these are MArzy's hi res textures. And yes, the alignment is fixed. Did you not look at the pictures?
