Patching extra functionality into <gamemd.exe>

[Blade]

Who ya gonna call? Looks like the beam from the Ghostbuters weapon...just be careful not to get slimed.

[TheMan]

pd you should add a other code to the electro bolt, like how mutch it should zigzag

[pd]

thought about that already, I'll be experimenting with it sooner or later

[VK]

Good work, PD!
I added 16-Bit SHP code and it's work
However it's have limitations now, because I use only one blitter:
BlitTrans<unsigned short>
Now you can use it as SHPs which not remappable and transparent.
For GUI elements, Sidebar, cameos.

[pd]

well, palette-indepence on sidebar or cameos is PWNSOME!

nicely done
if you have things finished, please send me your changes via email if possible, I want to send Marshall the exe tomorrow morning.

this means:
1.08 will also add customizable EBolt colors.
also - since the former "surprise" feature a.k.a. Bounty logic isn't a surprise anymore - there's gonna be a cool surprise I just added.
trust me, many people are gonna like it

@CnCVK:
I hope you can send me some exe changes you made for new features.
if not, nevermind, I'll code a new exe merger soon so you don't have to note down everything you changed.

PD, just out of curiocity, currently its impossable to have IsElectricBolt and IsLaser both on the same weapon, is it possible to allow drawing of laser and tesla on the same weapon?

BTW, looks awsome!

[pd]

it might be, the game leaves the special weapon effects alone once it finds one

[Bobingabout]

really, i remember it doing an IE... but that was almost 4 years ago.

[pd]

lol, I might be wrong, too...

you could try
if it gives an IE, attach it.

[ZombyDragon]

That would be an awsome effect

Another idea, would remap electro bolts work? It would go well with IsHouseColor= on lasers.

[Vinifera7]

Hmm.. that's an interesting idea.

It's awesome that you got 16-bit GUI elements to work, CnCVK.

[pd]

good idea on the remaps for ebolts.
it shouldn't be that of a problem but how to do that?
IsHouseColor1=yes, IsHouseColor2=yes and IsHouseColor3=yes ?

[Bobingabout]

I'd just go for IsHouseColor=yes and do the rest with maths, making each of the 3 beams a sligtly different brightness.(like the effect on the laser beam where the outer beam is lighter)

[VK]

Hmm.. that's an interesting idea.
It's awesome that you got 16-bit GUI elements to work, CnCVK.

In the future I will write more blitters  ,
so it can be used everywhere.
BTW, if you use 16-bit shp as image for building ,
it's work but when you use force shield on building it will show normal (without any color effects)
@PD
I have not finished some stuffs and have not  tested it
- MenuColors
- 16-Bit SHP
- Info dialog page

[pd]

k, then that's not gonna be included in 1.08 yet
