I have an RX question.

Post by evilgrins »

Does the RX normally make everything green?

I'm do an edit with 2 RX on it, both made by RoseBum. 1 is their flying saucer so I assumed the green was due to the whole alien thing... but I've noticed the RX jet is doing the green thing too.

This wouldn't be an issue except the green gets more intense the more you ride those things and about 4 to 5 rides in you can barely see anything at all.

So... is this green thing true of all RX or it just from these RoseBum ones?

yeah that's the old school/original way. green is to simulate being behind the glass cockpit from what I was told many years ago.

^This is true. But there is a bug on some rx versions (And early SLV) that the green screen is not reset. So each time you get on the jet you get more green.
Most likely you are not using the most recent versions of rosebum RXs (or maybe the latest version is the one affected?) you will need to test multiple versions to see if it was affected by that bug.

I've replaced RoseBum's RX already, but there seems to be only 1 kind of Flying Saucer.

I've noted that if i ride the thing all the way to the point it runs out of fuel, then the green goes away; I can fly to somewhere else with the Bat Wings from there... but the green stays if I get shot down or crash. Sometimes another ride in the saucer all the way to another out of fuel can take that away, but if not it's stuck that way until the next game.

So far in my testing I've only been doing dogfights with Warlords, and dodging bots shooting at me from the platforms. When I've got a stable selection of flying devices I'm hoping to post to this forum so more experienced flyers can take a spin and assess.

VIDEO drivers for the game also play an important role in success with the RX, flying sauxcers, jets, etc.

The Direct3D V9 (which is NOT the newest version) is the one that works great for me, irregardless of what I am flying.

Evil Grins - There may be more than one Alien-X.

I flew one where it could slow down to a dead stop while flying, and then another that would only slow up as much as the Wings Venom-X. People have opened up this code and adjusted it to their liking. I am sure the greenish color could be adjusted to clear. I have seen this with an older video card and assorted renderers.

I don't see it anymore now with a newer gaming rig.

I am hopping on this post because... well just because it may be related somewhat.

Please see the screen shot :

https://ibb.co/svttvsS

and * evil grins * - I'd like to ask you if you have ever messed with this map : 2050 Space Base ver. 3

The Ultraman capsule, the Telefrag gun, the Apache Chopper ..... so much more could been done with it and maybe still can.

Lure the Warlords down to ground level..... Add the AlienX somewhere.... Add the BatWings

We could have fun with this without turning it into a friggin' spam fest!
