Pulse vision


Trendal

Recommended Posts

Its an idea that i got from the aliens in the movie "Alien"

 

How it works is you have no vision whatsoever. Every 3-5 seconds, you vision appears in a blue or red pulse form but you see through walls for as far as possible.

 

This could be a great race ability.

 

If it is...

Not really possible since there isn't any way to black out a person's sight that isn't screwing with the games brightness settings. Any effect that changes those settings would be bad since not everyone uses the same brightness settings, and any sort of scripting with those settings can create significant issues in the game. Not to mention, you would have a constantly running script on you to enable/disable vision. And 3-5 seconds is a long time of darkness if you're doing anything other than standing there. It would technically be worse than trying to play the game at 1 frame a second. Especially when night eye and detect life (effects which would have to be used/altered for this) are already available without the blindness problem.

Well im thinking about the nighteye shader effects. I saw all of these shader effects with one of the mods and maybe they could be used to black the sight out. btw maybe every 2 secs and your vision is back for 2 as well :thumbsup:

Yeah thats what i mean. Now if the screen can be blacked out, then it will work perfectly.

 

 

 

Now i just though of something else:

 

It is probably impossible but make it so you can use lifedetect through the black screen.

I agree - this would be way cool if used appropriately. Maybe a short-term spell effect or have it combined with a strong buff. Probably can't get the exact effect you're looking for, but something close enough.

What this would mean for most players with average systems is that things would run at 200 fps for the blacked out seconds and then at 3 fps for the "pulse" - with all the seeing through walls...

 

Seriously, I think it sounds good- especially if this is a power or a temporary spell- with some super skill bonuses- making you a crazed uber warrior who could kill with his bare hands/presence if he could only see :)

 

Permanent pulse vision may be a pain...
