JK2 Push Effect in JKA.

[TheWhitePhoenix]

I have seen some videos where people modified JKA to have JK2's Force Push effect, which I think is a MUCH BETTER Push effect as opposed to that..."wave" effect that JKA has. Is it possible to put the JK2 Push and Pull effect back into JKA?

I'm 100% positive that there's a cvar for this.

If so, how will I be able to put it in the game?

You could try turning off that effect in the game with cg_renderToTextureFX. Try:

 

seta cg_renderToTextureFX 0

in the console.

Although this will affect other things that use a similar effect (cloaking, notably)

Kinda weird why they changed such an alright effect in JK2 to this...weird poorly done effect in JKA. :/ But I'll give that a try.

Can you show a video of some sort of what you've actually achieved or tried to do.. I'm missing the point, here

He means the circle-shaped blur that appears from the player's hands when you push someone.

Perhaps JKE/and OJK should add a cvar explicitly for that effect so it doesn't toggle everything else?

That always looked unnatural for a Force Push/Pull and I don't even know WHY they added it to begin with. But I also agree with what ensiform said too.

Looks fine to me.  It's meant as a shift of air in the area IMO.

Did you ever see the JKA Push/Pull effect from the side? Doesn't really look that well made. :/

Nope because I usually play with cg_thirdPersonAngle 0
