GFX update
 

So i was testing the explosions on zone today and noticed the explosion looked very rushed and its not even a explosion its just an image getting bigger then smaller again , so i remade the explosions GFX i hope you all like it.

I also had a new idea you know how halo has its bubble field well i make a force field for zone, its just another silly idea we can debate on. You would buy it at shop you can only have 1 of them, it stays around you for 10 sec and reflects any bullet or bombs shot or thrown at you. But your bullets could go though it, remember its just a idea.

As for the explosions i hope it will change. :)

*EDIT: I fixed the black background on it, the new file i uploaded in now transparent, the black one will stay on so you can see the glow effects better but please use transparent one so there are no dirty pixels. Force field was removed due to the fact that its just an idea and still in the making.*

Thank you

That's insane....Dude it's so freaking...detailed...

the boom is hot
nice job

Thanks again
 

Yeah compared to the old one yes it is so much better, only problem is I'll have to Gians it, that takes so long lol but its worth it for the new and very detailed explosion.

wouldn't really fit zone I think x.o...

Also, you did this all on black. I may be wrong but only greyscale works on black with graal, you'll need those effects to be on a transparent background.

Also, the force field is far to large for a graal sized player, not to mention it's the same image simply rotated o.o... Also, 10 seconds for your idea would be far to long. 2-3 would be more reasonable :o

Okay
 

I didn't know that it had to be on a transparent background thanks for telling me though, :) in my opinion i think it would fit, it looks better then the old one that's for sure. The force field was just an idea i put in there for fun :)

I think it's a good idea but 5 seconds is probably a fair time for its life period rather than 10.

I agree
 

Yeah 5 sec would make a better time limit for it

Not neccessarily...
1,1,1,.99 will still have all the colors

Either way it will be very easy to edit it appropriately if you have problems.

Yes
 

This is true, if there are any, which i hope there isn't i can always fix them up. :D

very nice :)

Make gifs or w/e animated format of these things animated already.

this +1

Gif
 

Since i remade them in a transparent background ill make them into a gif, only reason i didn't before was because of the dirty pixels that hide around it I'll have a gif image uploaded by the end of today.

Looks neat. Although, explosions already seem to lagg some players at some point.. imagine with thoses!

It might
 

:\It could give a little lag but not a whole lot for example flame pistols they make me lag like crazy but there still there. I in my opinion I would rather have a better quality explosion that might give a little lag then a crappy one that has no detailed effect on it. Hey it might not lag at all will never know until we find out. :D

Since his effects wouldn't need to rely on the particle engine or any scripts really it would be no less 'laggier' than a normal gani with an alpha effect applied to it.

Yeah, that's true.

Sorry
 

Apparently my photo shop is being stupid and wont let me edit the "dirty pixels" around the GFX. So sadly I cannot post the gif image animated till I figure out what the hell is wrong with it, If anyone knows how to animate this into a gif please feel free too, but for now ill just post my transparent GFX effects and tile sets on here. I will continue to try and fix it, and gif it for you.

:confused:

Sorry
