Adding Rain
 

Hi Everyone

Can someone explain to me how to add rain in the gem editor, I know about F6 for the environment, but how can I set f6 so it is raining, and the weather is cloudy to when I goto start a game.

I have come across a great link that expains about what the hotkeys are for the editor > http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=13652
but how exactly do I use f6?

Thanks

hey thanks for the feedback, I will give it a shot, and let you know how I got on.

thanks again

You can change any map/mission weather through editing environment files they use or adding new ones for them to use, it is even possible to change weather on the fly in the mission with environment command, be ware full path is required when using that.

I don't understand the full path bit?
