"Action Movie" bullet impact effects [video example provided]

[Graaicko]

So for my mode I would like to add semi-realistic bullet impact effects kind of like in the GMod video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ndb3ElWTgxg

I would like to make bullet effects such as in the video. I have a smoke effect that should fit well with this effect, but I need the smoke effect to appear when the bullet hits the wall and fade out similar to the video. The projectiles I am using for my weapons are model based tracers. So I am very excited to see how these turn out.

Current code, it uses a smoke effect I created specifically for weapons when fired. The effect is a bit to fast and spreads out unevenly making not look so good for bullet impacts on walls or objects.

Code: Select all

ACTOR CWPuff replaces BulletPuff
{
	Radius		1
	Height		1
	RenderStyle ADD
	Alpha		1
	Scale		.7
	+NOGRAVITY
	+NOBLOCKMAP
	+FLOORCLIP
    +NoExtremeDeath
	States
	{
	Spawn:
      BPUF A 0 A_SpawnItemEx("PuffSmoke",24,0,0,frandom(0.1,0.2),0,frandom(0.2,0.6))
      BPUF A 2 Bright A_PlaySound("RICOCK")
	  BPUF A 0 A_SpawnItemEx("GunSmokeSpawner",0,0,0,5)
      BPUF BCDEFGH 2
     Stop
	}
}

Mm... this smells of texture-type detection for different hit effects and sounds, 3D-model based puff effects aligned to surface vectors and such whatnots... Sorry, what was the question?
