if it weren't for the random angle bit i reckon they are a good match, personally. It should be relatively simple to align them to the player view so they are consistent.

No shockwaves, just hi-speed debris and a little bitty flash

I'd almost like to see this, if only in a mod or something.

They got included because dab made some 3d shockwaves that were so radically cool everyone desired them. So while they were radically different, no one realized this at the time and blindly put them in the mvp's. Even i was caught up with the cool factor, still sort of am except for that random angle stuff.

Pretty good summary of what happened. Heck, there was even a vote on whether the ones in the Media VPs would retain the blue look or be a fiery red. So much for preservation. But still, I do like the effect except for the random angle thing. It probably wouldn't be too hard to fix that, since I'm pretty sure that the original code had the shockwaves always perpendicular to the player.

It's how they're done in colony wars.

I realized today, with WMC's debris speed code and the flashy explosions code that Wanderer posted a vid of again today, you could probably do that already.
