make sure that the rains "Z" spawn is higher than your buildings roof. please tell me if you need help if you can't get it to work or you don't understand.

Don't mess with the efx, just raise the z that the rain spawns. In you rain file that contains Code: trace = bulletTrace(pos,pos +(0,0,-250), true, undefined); in your /maps/mp/ directory somewhere (I think) i don't map for cod2 anymore. But change the -250 value to where you want the rain to spawn on the map, go to the Z view on the editor with shift+tab I think and move your mouse up and down and look at the Z number at the bottom of the editor, when you get the the top of your building (the roof) take that number and add 50 to it and make it your Z value like this if it was say, -100, so you add 50 which = -50. so you would change it to this. Code: trace = bulletTrace(pos,pos +(0,0,-50)[/b], true, undefined); when you get it there

Hi Guys Thanks for the help but cant get it to work.... here is my rain gsc Code: main() { level.mapheight = 3000; //over all rooftops thread rain(); } rain() { level._effect["rain"] = loadfx ("fx/misc/rain_heavy.efx"); level._effect["lightning"] = loadfx ("fx/misc/lightning.efx"); //lightnings with positions, time (define it for your map) und thunder maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning", (473, 5597, 1207), 25.0); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning", (3614, 4840, 1207), 15.0); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning", (2811, 8271, 1207), 32.0); maps\mp\_fx::soundfx("elmthunder", (0, 0, 0)); while(true) { players = getentarray("player", "classname"); for(i=0; i<players.size; i++) { if (!isAlive(players[i])) continue; x = 350 - randomint(700); y = 350 - randomint(700); //If above the player there is no sky, than no rain above = bullettrace( players[i].origin + (x, y, 100), (players[i].origin[0] + x, players[i].origin[1] + y, level.mapheight), false, false); if (above["fraction"] < .9) continue; playfx(level._effect["rain"], above["position"]); wait .05; } wait .05; } } thanks guys Killer

oops, read your script again Code: main() { level.mapheight = 3000; //over all rooftops thread rain(); } rain() { level._effect["rain"] = loadfx ("fx/misc/rain_heavy.efx"); level._effect["lightning"] = loadfx ("fx/misc/lightning.efx"); //lightnings with positions, time (define it for your map) und thunder maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning", (473, 5597, 1207), 25.0); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning", (3614, 4840, 1207), 15.0); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning", (2811, 8271, 1207), 32.0); maps\mp\_fx::soundfx("elmthunder", (0, 0, 0)); while(true) { players = getentarray("player", "classname"); for(i=0; i<players.size; i++) { if (!isAlive(players[i])) continue; x = 350 - randomint(700); y = 350 - randomint(700); //If above the player there is no sky, than no rain above = bullettrace( players[i].origin + (0, 0, 100), players[i].origin + (0,0,level.mapheight), false, false); if (above["fraction"] < .9) continue; playfx(level._effect["rain"], above["position"]); wait .05; } wait .05; } } edited on Nov. 16, 2007 10:22 am by .KiLL3R.

above = bullettrace( players.origin + (x, y, 100), (players.origin[0] + x, players.origin[1] + y, level.mapheight), false, false); Raise the number 100, that should fix your problem.
