Different front graphics for THINGS in alcoves?

Post by Gambit37 »

In original DM/CSB, chests have a different front image displayed when placed in an alcove. (straight on, with no sides showing).

Is there a way to do this in DSB?

Honestly, I don't think I ever noticed this was actually a thing.

So, no, there's nothing in the engine. I guess you could dsb_qswap chests to a "front facing" version when they're put into alcoves, but that's kind of messy.

I guess I'll look into this... :mrgreen:

To be honest it's not a big deal and in fact might cause more graphics issues that I can't be arsed to fix anyway... don't worry :)
