You know... working on tileable frames is really painful....


This is really a crazy ammount of work...

Maybe I can us a batch or something.

[IPAndrews]

Can someone do a 3D version of this?

[WMCoolmon]

Here's an interesting thing to do...

Use the animated shockwave in DaBrain's previous thread in place of the shockwave01.tga

[DaBrain]

Double animation?



You mean the pseudo-non-planar shockwave?


I guess it would look very odd...

[Ulala]

So, I installed the shockwaves and ran the build linked to in this thread, and my FSO crashes when the mission is about 75% loaded.

[DaBrain]

Please try to delete the shockwave files and see if it still crashes.

I hope it's not my fault.

[Ulala]

Will do when I get back in town (on a business trip ATM), but it's probably just my FSO that needs reinstallation. There's lots of older SCP junk in there that I never bothered removing.

i don't see the new shockwaves, just the crappy ones from with the pixels showing.

[DaBrain]

It's important you put the files into the "maps" folder, and not into the effects folder.

Also: The second effect requires the files from the first download. (Plus the fix.)

[Ulala]

Rgr. I don't have to enable them in the launcher or anything, do I?

[DaBrain]

All it needs is the -jpgtga option.

Oh and btw, I think it should show you a wip shot of the new shockwave.

It may change a lot though.



Edit: It's a tile already.

[Fineus]

Oh hell yes!!

[Cobra]

oh my god that's beautiful!!!

A great improvement, but now it looks like a fireworks demonstration.  It looks VERY gold.  But then again, maybe I need to see it in action.

[BlackDove]

MMMMMMMMMHM

MMMMMMMMMHM

That's what I'm talking about.

[Cobra]

nope, still nothing, and i'm using goob's 20050722 build (his are most stable, so, meh. )

[Trivial Psychic]

You haven't tried his 07-28 build?

[Charismatic]

Excelent job. These are great. Can't discribe how cool this is.

One suggestion. Maby a few different shockwave models, instead of one same shockwave style for each of them. Im not sure if this has been suggested already but its worth saying.

Would be cool.

[Scuddie]

I agree.  That gold one can be for Anti-matter and nuclear explosions (bombs), the blue one can be from vehicles that have much more energy than weapons (cruisers), the toned down red one for vehicles with heavy weapon capacity (corvettes), and my lovely wonderful beautifully colored shockwave () for vehicles with high  energy AND high weapon capacity (Destroyers).  How's that for variety?  I personally think it's much better than blue for terran, gold for vasudan, and red for shivan.  Thoughts?
