Monster spawn only at night + sound/effect?

[ghosu]

Hi

 

I had the idea to create a creature using exisiting skeletons and animations, just adding a new skin. Since i'm more into modeling i'm just curious if it would be possible to:

 

- let the creature spawn only at night (for example from 22:00-04:00)

- play a sound once it apperars

- change the weather or something like that to get a darker wipe when it appears...like a snowstorm or some kind of dark orb/portal around the spawn point.

 

If wouldn't work i have to place it only in dark areas and dungeons.

 

I just need a rough overview if something similar is possible, some kind of brainstorming.

You may know Pyramid Head from Silent Hill...

The headless horseman only spawned at night, I think, so it may be possible.

Any further ideas? Would be good to know before i continue my modeling work...or could someone maybe explain IF a random monster spawn is somehow possible? Or do i have to place them on the map...i guess random event should work as well like the mercs that sometimes attack you or assassins and such stuff.

There is a condition You can apply to magic effects GetCurrentTime so it may be possible. I think Pyramid Head would be awesome. There is a modder working on Scythe weapons too would work great.

Thx for your feedback, will check that out as well. Hope i can manage that somehow since my scripting skills are...there are none :biggrin:
