Title: Engine Glow
Post by: Paragon on June 02, 2006, 08:28:56 am

I'm trying to find some help on creating engineglows for a game called Infinity (http://www.fl-tw.com), and you guys all know what you're doing here, so I was hoping you could help us out?  Maybe some advice, or point me toward some threads where I can find the info (there are a LOT of threads to look through here...).

Thanks!

Is there not an Infinity community page?
I gotta admit this is an FS2 specialty website, you find much outside of FS2 related support..

Ummm, Infinity is an independent project currently in development.  The creator, Flavien Brebion, is currently trying to figure out how to make engineglows for the game.  Thats what I was asking for help with...

Ah.

Ways that spring to mind;
- particle effect
- bitmap rotated-to-viewer
- textured object
