Temperature... stuff
« on: November 24, 2007, 05:56:00 pm »

i don't know if its a rumour, but for the life of me i cant find the thread on it, but is it true that if you switch of the temperature in the init files you can freeze water in the map your playing, im just generally confused.

If you shut off temperature then water will not either freeze or thaw. This means that if the river is frozen and you turn off temperature then the river will never thaw. Great for boosting FPS.

Hmm, and will it thaw if you switch it back again?

I believe so. I never turn temperature on but it should work like that. It's great having a 30+ wide waterfall frozen. Also if you open an aquifer and it pours on top of the frozen river it won't freeze. So it should thaw if you turn temp back on.
