I'm not totally sure but I think thats my THOR beam. It's fitted as standard on all GTAD Thunder class ships, along with the RAIN beam. (acronyms are A-1 SUPAR!)

And yeah, a tip for all subsace makers... because the textures are stretched like they are it can look really bad and pixilised(sp?) so using a blur tool on it helps to make it look better.

Yeh, but luckily if you're in a frantic mission, you don't notice it so much, and it still looks sweet.

The background in the picture showing the Sobek corvette getting ripped apart looks nice. It looks like fighting near Capella after the supernova.

Good idea though

Wierd...I got that block thing in FS1, but not in FS2. Is that using my version, or your own? If it's mine, color me confused.   Do you get the same effect in normal space? You should be able to see it against nebula backgrounds or against ships, but it simply isn't there...in FS2.

It's yours, and I only get it in Freespace2 subspace... not in real space against ships and/or nebula etc... I don't know if it appears in Nebula or not.

That's too bad- the repacements work fine in nebulas, but I'm disappointed they don't in subspace...darn.

No worries, though I'm curious to see what would happen if you made a frame for the .ani that was totally green (which I gather is something Freespace translates into transparent?)

I dunno- I think I may have tried that at one point, but I'm not sure. I do know that the debris seems to use a slightly different palette...

The reason the Subspace debris works wierd is probably because it uses some graphics routines from FS1, maybe including the Debris routines- it would make sense, since the only other place this happens is in FS1.

In theory, by looking at explosion and flak anis, totally blue and totally black should also be transparent - and we know that's not true.

I think that the all black colour is transparent for anis, but maybe I was lucky for my shockwave. Maybe it's like in many games, the transparent colour is the first or the last colour of the palette.

Join the Thor Club. You are the [insert correct number here] to use the name "Thor" in an FS MOD and at least the second to use it for a beam weapon.
