Used the chill perk a lot today, doesn't really seem effective enough to notify of the pressence of an obs... I usually get the chill sound AFTER I kill one. While posthumous sounds are intruiging, it doesn't quite seem viable. Scent mask is cool but it encourages campers quite a lot. Maybe it wears off or loses potency until you start moving again? Haven't seen the difference with the hunter perk yet. Just haven't played enough. Explosives master seems cool, but their life spans are, well, explosive... Fizzling out after about a minute in a large awesome explosion of mightyness and self destruction. Other than that everything is B E A utiful! Amazing work as usual. And today we got the most annoying combo ever. The map that rains + Fog = everyone loses xD

Ok so I did some testing with Ruthless boo. The range at which the chill activates is farr too short. or at least the speed at which it activates. Also I think you need to look into the static sound. I know it's worked fine so far, but every now and then I hear the sound when they're already on top of me, or it doesn't activate when they start sprinting. Is there a time delay between sprint and noise activation?  Cause they've been sprinting within10 feet and I haven't heard it till they were on top of us. Just some thoughts =)

Updated today, sorry about the hissy fit last name on xfire Falcar, was a bit late (or early) in the morning to be updating servers.

It turns out I needed to make a new folder to make the mod run. Not to worry, she's apples now.

Thanks, Chapo

I agree with Spidergat in regards to Chills perk. It needs to activate quicker when the Obscurity is near, but you heard all this from me last night Falcar. My original concept of it was to be quiet when far from the player, and get louder as obscurity gets closer. The way Falcar has made it works ok, but definately either needs a larger range or a quicker initial chill noise when obs is close. I tested also and obscurity was right next to me and it took 3 seconds to activate the chills (would have been knifed about 6 times by then).

On a differing note, be aware that the Chills perk is affected by weather

Hunter: The blood dripping is quicker, thus it updates more often and is more accurate as to where the obscurity is.

Scent Mask: I'll let Falcar talk about that, as I haven't had a chance to check out all the updates, but I believe that scent mask makes it so obscurity cannot see the tracking cloud of that player after a kill when within a set range, but once they move out of that range, they can see it. Eg: If guy with scent mask is on other side of map, you will still see him. Once you get within the range however, it will fade out. I'm not 100% sure on this so I will let Falcar confirm. Tracking and final minute bloodlust are not affected by it also....I think.

Yeah the scent mask made it so that when a guy kill a friend of mine, he said he could only see me for like 3 seconds, instead of the normal amount you would get. So either it's a % reduction, or a set amount or something like that ^.^ And yes it doesn't cover tracking.

Yeah scent mask works the way snakelet said, and I guess we'll have to look into chills if it really is that lame =/

ps. only way to improve the obscurity static sound is to segment it more... which I was planning on doing, but will mean that there's 72 sound files and 144 sound references xD

I am so sorry >.< That is such a large number xD Anyway I can help you out with that? Oh and as for the sound files you sent me. I'm looking at them and the way you recorded them basically aded a permanent hiss to them. If you send me the original or tell me where you got them, or I could even pull some from my own sound FX library and tell me what format you want them in I'll be more than happy to cut some together and send em your way. Same when it comes to other sound effects. And I think the same kinda hiss is in on the shiver sound. Just lemme know ^.^

Certainly, I downloaded the thunder sounds from a free website so I guess that's where the hiss came from... if you can provider better ones then great :D

i love the new c4 idea its sick. tho how dan didnt die as bait i cant tell. the chill is a tad lame. i used the lmg and didnt really notice the slowerness. with the xplosive expert perk u can still pick up other weapons, im not sure if you meant to do this, maybe make it so with that perk the xplosives do more and u cant pick up and other gun permantly or only pickup other pistols. the smoke looked freaky cool. i dont no if u changed the colour or if it was just cause i was a lmg. but cool. good work guys

Idk about you but when I used an lmg there was a MAJOR difference in run speed. Even when using hustle you are MUCH slower than other classes even with pistol out xD  And there is much more smoke generated from the barrel of the gun. And I've actually been using chill a lot. It lets me know if someone is trying to posess me ;)  And they're always like HOW DID YOU KNOW@!%!%!? And I'm like CAUSE YOU SUCK! But it's all thanks to the perk ^.^ lol.   Anyway it's still a great job.

My dads FX comp is off right now so i can't access the FX folder but I'll get him to turn it on sometime tonight and see if I can't find you some good solid sound fx. Any other types of sounds you want? I can also record vocals if need be ^.^
