Description
Version: 2.57

StormFox 2 is the successor to StormFox applying weather, light and effects to the map.
SF2 is created with a focus on asynchronization, letting clients handle the effects.

  • Complete rewrite of the original code.
  • Day/ Night cycle.
  • Rain, fog, thunder, wind and other effects.
  • Dynamic clouds
  • Dynamic weather generation.
  • Environment sounds. E.g. calm rain hiting the window.
  • Snow texture replacement. Grass, dirt and roads will be covered in snow.
  • CAMI support for most adminmods.
  • OpenWeatherMap API support.
  • Wiremod support (including E2 support).
  • New water / window effects.
  • Mjolnir Gun: A gun that shoots lightning.
  • vFire mod support.
  • And many more features..
Supports existing map day/night-effects

New window and water effects


Settings and options
  • To open the clientsettings, you can find it in the context menu (C - menu), or type "stormfox2_menu" in the console
  • To open the controller, you can find it in the context menu (C - menu), or type "stormfox2_controller" in the console.
  • To open the serversettings, you click the cog symbol in the controller, or type "stormfox2_svmenu" in the console.

FAQ and Common problems
  • It lags when the light changes!
    The map you're playing on most likely doesn't support light_enviroment. Disable extra lightsupport or choose another map.
    You can check this in serversettings
  • I can't open server-settings, controller or use commands!
    You don't have access. Check your installed adminmod.
  • Rain and other effects lag!
    Increase the FPS to what you feel comfortable with in the clientsettings.

  • I don't see rain or particle effects!
    You have to decrease your FPS-setting. Try 40.
  • How do I change weather?
    Open the controller, select the weather-% you want and then click on the weather-icon.
  • How do I make it snow?
    Rain + Cold = Snow
  • Does SF1 addons work with SF2?
    Not unless the creator has updated their mod.
  • Will SF1 addons cause errors with SF2?
    Highly unlikely.

Requirements
  • DirectX 9c ( Most GPUs past 2007 supports this )
  • For best enjoyment, a map with light_enviroment support.

Do not reupload SF2 content!

Not sure what is causing it, but it is a annoying issue.

How can someone disable snow rendering on the ground? In underground maps, makes no sense to have snow on the floor.
