monstermadness

i want to do a mod with it, but i really cant find the file that its responsible for the blood on the marine screen when he dies, and i cant find the file that changes the blood ''puff'' when a marine is hit too

The death screen is just the black screen with the kill info on it. What you want are DeathEffects. Do a find in files on deatheffects and you will be directed to a line in player client with a function called:

local function TriggerFirstPersonDeathEffects(self)

    local cinematic = Client.CreateCinematic(RenderScene.Zone_ViewModel)
    cinematic:SetCinematic(self:GetFirstPersonDeathEffect())
    
end

Begin there and follow the trail to the information you want.

thks for the help, but is there any dds editable file for the blood splat that appears on my screen when i die as a marine?

Those files will be referenced in the material(s) used for that effect. I've stumbled across them before so I know they're in there. Couldn't tell you where off hand though.

It's a DDS file in cinematics/vfx_materials I think
