Hi everyone, I just had a question regarding the nature in which the player dies or is dying. Is there a way to change the effect that is applied here? I notice it makes the screen go red (ambiance light) and plays a heartbeat on loop. Is this hardcoded or can we modify this?

I noticed that if you are playing a very dark map and you get hurt... you suddenly have nightvision as the dying effect increases the ambient light.

Agreed. This is very annoying and undesirable. However, I believe it is a hard coded thing and can't currently be changed unfortunately. Maybe you should suggest a change in the Feature Creep forum.

What if you set player start marker "violence" to "no"? I haven't tested it, but it sounds like it's related to death effect.

Here is a link to the four post process shaders that have the red hurt hud removed. The heart beat sound still comes on at 75. That is hard coded in the engine.

Make a back up of your other post-XXXX.fx files. There should be 4 of them.

Actually, you can simply tune the heartbeat sound down to zero with any decent audio software.
