Annoying Shield Charge & environment field bubbles...

Recommended Posts

Hi - would it be possible at some point in the future, to have a slash command, to be able to turn off the white bubble around your ship that is produced by shield charge, or environment field skills??

 

i presume it must be possible to disable these effects one's self somewhere in the client folder, like removing the video at the game launch... any info on such a tweak would be greatly appreciated from one who is otherwise technically incompetent.

 

thanks

Good suggestion.  If the bubble is a client-side effect (as I presume it is), there ought to be a way to turn it off.  I'm not saying that there necessarily *is* a way to do it, just that it makes sense there would be.

 

If it's an effect controlled server-side, then wow, whoever coded it back in 2002 really wasn't thinking very clearly.

Rename the sizzle.bik file to sizzle.bak or something else. The eb_ws_logo.bik can also be renamed.

 

You can find both in the \Ea Games\Earth & Beyond\Data\Client\Mixfiles folder, right at the top of the list.
