It's me again!
The TAP staff is proud to present the new Hyperspace jump for TAP! Yes, the following vieo was posted 4 months ago. But hey, now that I announced it, I hope it draws more attention to you all that we are still alive and going!

Still need some refining and tuning, we know. So don't coe bugging us for it


EDIT: GOD! YouTube removed the video! Arghhh....
EDIT2: Hmmm....now they put it back. Wonder what that was for....

[nubbles526]

Oh....it is very complicated. All I can say is that it involves the tweaking of a .tbl. All other info, I am banned from saying out loud

[Droid803]

very nais.

IIRC, it is a mix of the BTRL warpin and the basic warpin... nubbles, do you have a higher res version of that one?

[CaptJosh]

Not bad, but given what I remember from playing the three Homeworld games recently, the borders are sharp enough, but the interior should sort of look like it has large ripples across it. Almost like water. In that video, it looks like static, not ripples. I'll try to get you folks some screens from Homeworld: Cataclysm, since it's the one I've played most recently.

You mean higher res video or higher res map for hyperspace?

Would be nice if you can  the world will be a much better place with people like you.

vid you fool

[nubbles526]

Yeah....I know Youtube would cause those problems. (Since Youtube .swf format is not made for prettyness.)

[ShadowGorrath]

You can have high detailed videos now though

[nubbles526]

True - but can't be bothered to reupload them. (I have 54kb upload speed)

[haloboy100]

Ooooooo.

Never played Homeworld before, but this is purdy

[nubbles526]

Ummm....somone removed the video!!!!!!!!!!

[Stormkeeper]

... Nope, I'm watching it right now.

Yea, hyperspace, depending on the core, is literally like opening a door into the space, and its either yellow (first core), blue (second core) or green (third core). The 'door' is usually depicted as a smooth wall, and it 'eats' away the ship; if you watch a hyperspace jump from the front, you can see 'into' the ship. Not sure if you would want to make the hyperspace sequence like that, but i think CaptJosh's idea of a ripple effect does seem appropriate.

[nubbles526]

Oh yeah? Then Youtube hates me.

"We're sorry, this video is no longer available"

[Stormkeeper]

Try watching it again?

[nubbles526]

Already did

[Droid803]

It works for me...

[pecenipicek]

ctrl + f5...

neways, the current hyperspace graphics are well... placeholders. it'll look much prettier when we finally make it properly.

[nubbles526]

Ummm...force refresh also failed....as long as it works with others, it is fine with me.

Pece, please discuss in Private forum on how to improve hyperspace stuff.

[pecenipicek]

mhm, sure. *boots you to private*
