Version: 2.72
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.
Warning! This will not work together with StormFox 1.
[h1]Features:[/h1][list] [*]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. [*]Mjölnir Gun: A gun that shoots lightning. [*]vFire support. [*]And many more features.. [/list]

New since 2.70
For better map support, StormFox2 can now utilize the NikNaks library, if installed.
[h1]Settings and options[/h1][list] [*]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. [/list]
[h1]FAQ and common problems[/h1][list] [*]It lags when the light changes! The map you're playing on most likely doesn't support light_environment. Disable extra light support or choose another map. You can check this in the server settings.
[*]I can't open the server settings, controller or use commands! You don't have access. Check your installed adminmod. [*]Rain and other effects lag! Set the FPS-target to what you feel comfortable with in the client settings. The effects scale with it.
[*]I don't see rain or particle effects! You have to decrease your FPS-setting. Try 40. [*]Do I need NikNaks? No, it is optional. StormFox 2 uses it automatically if it is installed. The menu has a NikNaks page that shows if it is detected. [*]How do I change the weather? Open the controller, select the weather-% you want and then click on the weather-icon. [*]How do I make it snow? Rain + cold temperature = snow. [*]Do SF1 addons work with SF2? Not unless the creator has updated their mod. [*]Will SF1 addons cause errors with SF2? Highly unlikely. [/list]
[h1]Requirements[/h1][list] [*]DirectX 9c ( Most GPUs past 2007 supports this ). [*]For best enjoyment, a map with light_environment support. [*]Optional: NikNaks for better map support. [/list]
