Intro:

This tutorial will demonstrate making effects appear when you step. You can do things like foot prints with decals or flaming feet when you walk!

 

Special Notes

-For this tutorial I will be editing the Master Chief's [foot] tag. I will also be using Entity 1.4

-For both Master Chief and Elite you will be editing chunks 0-5 so thats six chunks you have to do the same thing to over and over again.

 

 

 

To edit the effects that will appear when you step, We will be editing the Impact Effect Chunks,

 

 

 

First go to chunk 0 of Impact Options.

 

 

In Impact Effects theres a list off all the materials available for the effects to take place on.

 

In this tutorial I will be editing the sand effect.

 

 

 

 

To apply the effect you will be using when you walk or land you select an effect in this section(Impact Effect 1#).

 

 

 

Then repeat this step in chunks 0-5

 

For most materials thats about all you have to do.

For the material I'm doing(sand) theres no material identity meaning that the effect is linked but the material type doesn't know what material type for the effect to take place.

 

So what you do is add one in this section.

 

 

 

Select something that would have be the same as your Impact Effect chunk. For this I found a chunk with sand in the name.

 

 

 

 

 

Here are some videos of successful foot step effects:

Sweet I am so going to do this! Can none modders see the explosion?

Can none modders see the explosion?

 

Yes if you copy the tags like you would to get projectiles visible, since the foot effects are from the map itself.
