General Suggestion - Lessening the Red Screen Upon Damage


Ya Boi Sawrunner

Recommended Posts

What are you suggesting? - To remove or heavily reduce the red screen effect upon taking HP damage.

How would this change better the server? - Combat would be more enjoyable for all parties, as in its current state, the red screen is both obnoxious, and debilitating to combat situations, working like a flashbang if damage is inflicted enough. It forces combat to be a matter of "sit and wait til you can even see whats happening" which takes a huge chunk of the fun out of the fight.

Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain. - Absolutely none. As no side would gain an advantage in this case, since it would effect everyone. You can tell when you are shot, your character flinches, and blood shoots out of you right in front of your eyes. Its pretty obvious when you are taking damage.

Who would this change mostly benefit? - Anybody who gets hurt, ever. So everyone.

Please link any workshop content, screenshots, or anything that you think may be helpful to those who view this suggestion - I know there are mods that add new effects and disable others, or some that remove red screen effects of all kinds. Alternatively, one could be made for the server itself. Could either A: lessen or disable the current effect one way or another, or B: replace it entirely with a new effect that isn't like someone put red tape over your eyes.

Im not 100% so if someone could test it I would be very appreciative, but apparently this mod gets rid of the red screen upon taking damage as well as during death.

Would appreciate if someone could test it for me and see, because if it works, well, the mod is like, a single KB

Fuck yeah, I hate it when I'm shooting a dclass or something and when my character moves from getting shot I accidentally gun down 2 or 3 of them
also it messes with aim.
and blinds a person a option to turn it off would be nice.

I'd like to mention that the red screen is there to make it more realistic, whats the last game (except for shitty ones when the developers cant code it in) that doesnt have a red screen?

realistic? I have been shot before, if we were going for full realism there would be far less indicators. I sure as hell didnt get any, adrenaline makes you ignore a lot of that, and gunfights certainly lead to that.

Yes, yes yes. I know. Least they would do is limit the blood on the screen, like this.

Or somewhere in the less blood side.

Please for the love of god I'm sick of my screen obliterating my eyes each time I get shot for 3 damage and making me unable to see where the person I'm fighting is.

+support Especially when you are on 682 or any other scp when you’d shot it’s like a giant flash bang and smoke grenade cause you literally cannot see anything you are just vulnerable.

Yes, it does... I mean, I've been testing it for a while, and I haven't seen red screen yet like I shot myself, grenade myself, and burning myself it working so far, and yet I spawn giant alien monster attacking me I started to see redness again.... I try to do it without it messing around with local files. I found the redness, but it does work. I remove Fire Damage, Poison, Water, and shoot from both sides, but getting hit in the front for some reason shows it.

This was one of the main reasons for me on why i hated pvp here, if this gets passed with a worthy alternative, that would be awesome. Red screen is highly unrealistic.

+support!!!!

though i swear this was denied before saying this couldn't be done. So we'll see.

There are more than enough mods handling this specific issue. If it comes down to it, I will have it made. Its unbearable for combat. Something has to be done, no matter what.
