Rejected Tone down the Red Damage Filter

+1 so silent will never get another kill

 

bump lol

 

about a month ago, I went witch hunting the texture file for this, and to replace it, but I failed and I couldn't find the file.

My instincts tell me opal is in favor of this suggestion but he can't also find the file

 

wtf why would you use a texture to tint a screen, Source has a built in screen tinter and that would be a waste of memory and file space

 

thats new to me :u how can this problem be sorted then

 

Just remove the screen tinter xd!

 

and lowkey create 500 new bugs on the way

 

Just remove the bugs lol

 

Shit I agree with this idea though, i've had this red bullshit happen over 5 times just today, it makes it impossible to see anything. RIP
+1 Fuck it, lets replace the guns with pillows that do 1 damage, then it won't do enough damage to make your screen red. Boom. Problem fixed.

 

setting a function to do NULL will not create 500 bugs

if it does, just set the color to NULL and done

 

+1

 

+1 and bundmp i hate this c*rap

 

As I said in the past, this is in engine feature built into Source and not something we can do much with.

The "red screen" is part of the engine's "HudDamageIndicator", which also includes the damage direction markers you see on your screen to show where you took damage from (https://i.imgur.com/WCCMiL7.png). Disabling it would mean we disable those indicators as well, which as you can imagine is unwanted.

That's Source for you.

 

If thats the case please lock the thread so it doesn't get confused as possible again.

They need to tone it down with the red filter so it doesn't completely fucking blind you

There was a suggestion for that at one point, but it could not be done (?)

Based upon opalium's response, i'm gonna go ahead and deny this as unfortunately it's just a part of source.
