Post by: Galemp on November 29, 2002, 06:50:29 pm: Now just make it into a FighterBeam and we've got ourselves a kickass Tesla Cannon. :D
Title: How about this for a beam..
Post by: Sobek on November 29, 2002, 11:55:51 pm: sweet, (i've beaten you to it though :wink: ) i find using the straight red lightning more reminissiant to the beam that is blasting the deimos on the cover of the freespace 2 cd holders.
The multicolored blue red one, thin it out just a bit so it can look a lil more streamline IMHO.

Bingo! :yes:

But you know what, I would add even more lightning bursts emmiting from the beam core.And how about a warm up where the beam doesn't have that crap assembling animation (the ordinary one in FS2) but some sort of lightnings concentrating in the middle and WHAM! Lightning beams are da bomb! :yes:

That would require a source code change. Currently the warm-up is just a pcx which gets larger, not an ani.

Post by: Razor on December 01, 2002, 09:04:01 am: Hm. I guess your're right about that one. Well it's just a thought though.
Title: How about this for a beam..
Post by: Galemp on December 01, 2002, 10:56:42 pm: Actually, I think Razor's talking about the particles. You can set the beam to have no particles, or (I think) you can have it reference a different ANI.
