Title: Shoot the terran !
Post by: Darkage on July 17, 2002, 12:11:47 pm: I made a short animation whit a Myrmidon and a Thoth fighter. It's around 861kb and rendering whit DivX5.0.

Click me for great justice ! (http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/inferno/darkage/fighter.avi)

Use "Save target as"

I made it as a test, since it came out rather nice i'll animate the Thruster flames of the Thoth and add debris from the explosing Myrmidon fighter.

Good Work! (http://w1.520.telia.com/~u52019065/smiley/buttrock.gif)

Post by: Ulundel on July 17, 2002, 12:38:06 pm: Nice. I like the camera movement.
Only the explosion is a little bit weird cause as soon as the missile impacts KABOOM! Looks...unrealistic. :)

As i said it's more of a test version;) i'll make it tumble like in fs2 and then explode, add debris and animate the Thoths flames.

Post by: Dark_4ce on July 19, 2002, 11:39:24 am: Its sweet! :yes: :D

Though the explosion is kinda sudden. You should have it explode from inside the ship with nice amount of chunkyness. But still really cool.

Post by: Gortef on July 20, 2002, 02:53:41 am: well the only thing weird about the explosion is that the exploding ship seems to disappear just a 0.0001 of a second before the explosion. But as you said... WIP ;)

Post by: Sandwich on July 24, 2002, 08:27:19 am: I assume that the first flash of an explosion is the missile exploding, and the second one is the fighter? My only recommendation for this WIP is to let those explosion animations display all their frames so that they fade out naturally. Other than that: :jaw: :yes: :yes2: :jaw:
