I was suggesting that someone makes that ::)
There was a tornado (Weather, not the plane) on ofp.info awhile ago I'm sure

Looks stunning in the daytime but not so sure about night. My eyes kind of keep focusing on the rain in the background. Getting me dizzy. :o

What about doing something to make it fade in/out?

Never really expected it to be used... :P

Anyway, the reason I said it was not MP compatible was because I don't know squat about MP and I didn't make any changes to satisfy MP.

Well, there is already a snow script - it's included in Kegetys Winter Nogojev island. I'll extract it for you when I get back, at least if no-one else has. You could also do it yourself, just get PBO decrypter 1.5 from ofp.info's Utilities section and just decompile the Winter Nogojev addon.

Also, I was wondering - Since the rain-drop effect appears inside houses, too, wouldn't it be possible to check if the 2d position for the rain drop contains any objects? To give a poor example -

_x = (getpos _unit select 0)
_y = (getpos _unit select 1)

[_x + random 10 - random 10,_y + random 10 - random 10,10]

? nearestObject... ---- but then again, that wouldn't work... But if you could just check of if the position in question has any object(s) at its position...

Once again, just thinking out loud...

Feel free to try. As I've said, it's a lost project.

IMO, I don't think that would be very succesfull at all. Better would be to let the mission maker define the houses. Kinda like LCDs hidden body script (in beta testing forum, like way down) .

Hey Nemesis6,

If you could extract it that would be great! I am not that good at opening pbos :(

Cheers.

Nice work.

I've noticed a couple of interesting effects.  The rain keeps falling after Aborting the mission, and clicking Preview again. Also, the rain keeps falling after clearing out the Editor and using a fresh map. I cleared the demo, placed only a player unit on the map, and hit Preview--the rain was still falling. Any idea what's causing this?

Might be a bug with the drop command. Certianly not my work anyway.
