Hidden Features

AquaMan · 04-25-2003, 11:32 AM

Hey Guys, this is my first post and I been around a long time, have any of you tried the Ctrl T combination, it will shift the fish around to different positions in the tank. Have anyone else found any other "hidden features"?

That is just a side-effect of pressing Ctrl-T. Ctrl-T switches the textures from compressed to uncompressed and vice versa. The texture switch requires resetting the 3D environment and that is what actually makes the fishes shift positions. I noticed the position shifting with every change of settings that requires a 3D reset like that.

Thanks, Mountainmaster, by the why your Fish Picker program is great!

However, the Alt+Ctrl+F - Screen Freeze still persist in GA, just it wont' brings the fish to the center of the screen but freeze them whereever they were, although, the FPS still counting.

In fact, I do like this feature, this makes me much easier to scrren capture rather then waiting/adjusting the screen cap delay time of the hyperSnapDX or PhotoShop etc...

Remember that this was a function created for Jim to be able to screen capture fish shots quickly, it could have adverse side effects.

I found that the F10 key will do the same thing as the ALT-CTRL-F combination when in window mode on my system without the possible negative side affects as ALT-CTRL-F.

This is off topic : I love James and Patscarr's pictures. I'm having trouble picking which one of the two looks cooler.

Come on. We look nothing alike, except that we are both wearing shades, and not even the same style frames. I think my hair line is a little lower than his. My hair is a different color than his. I always smile and he never does. And most importantly, my tie is WAY cooler than his!
