Lemma Soft Forums

Hi!

I was trying to add some rain effects to my game, and I implemented one I found here in the forums called "simple rain effect". It looks a bit rough, thoug.
So I was wondering If there's any other alternatives to that. I found a really cool video, where they used openGL. Is there any tutorial available to achieve that?



Thank you very much for your time

At a quick glance, it seems the Ren'Py 'simple rain effect' is just overlaying raindrops while the background remains untouched. If you look closely at the OpenGL example you'll notice that the background blurs in and out in accordance with the rain. Perhaps you could try blurring your background slightly in its entirety and several spots a bit stronger (on and off with alpha) to improve your rain effect.

I'd try varying the size, at random, to give a sense of depth.

In the video, all the "rain" looks exactly the same, so looks as if its a sheet of moving lines held in front of the 'camera'

Thank you for your responses!
At the end I just keept the simple one, since I don't know how to use the openGL thing. I applyed the blur effect, though. It looks a little bit better with it.



Here's the result so far.

Thank you again!

That looks pretty fantastic. Good job!
