Weapon Effects - Yet another bunch of 32bit eye candies
Welcome to HLP, ivanenski. :)

Hey, Lightspeed, I gave the new Hornet trails a go - they're pretty nice, but I still have my reservations. Still love to see what else you can come up with. :nod:

I'll add a bit of length to them.

This is 9+ hours of fiddling... and getting annoyed... and trying all over again... and trashing everything... and trying again.... and trashing again.... :rolleyes:

Anyway... Try them in-game and get this thread growing ;)

Woah... the inclusion of a non-particle trail did the trick.  Looks awesome!

Although the drift between lines looks a little odd in the pics, I'm willing to bet it looks awesome ingame.

Okay, I was planning to save these up for later but I couldn't resist :)



Impact Effects for the Subach! - You'll have to try them in-game for best visibility as in Alt-Pause mode shield hit ANIs are not displayed.

Those blasts look awefully high-energy for a weapon as weak as the Subach, although the effect is cool.

nah, the top three images are really close zoom.

The upper left image looks a bit odd (as if the effects were larger) because they hit the shield, and the shield hit is not displayed in alt-pause :)

I've finally gotten around to trying these effects.  It's beautiful.



Just a question, could make Subach secondary colour brighter?  It used to be really easy to shoot the Subach long-ranged since it was really visible.  Now, it seems to just disappear on me.  The purple hit splashes are great though.

If this isn't supposed to happen, I'll make screenshots =/

you might want to check your brightness settings, it shouldn't be getting dark...

The colour fade is from 250.0.0 to 0.0.250, i.e. the brightness should remain approximately the same. Looks like you're having problems with blue tones to me. That would explain why you didnt have these problems earlier as the original colour fade was from 0.0.250 to 250.0.0.
