The flash's speed doesn't seem to fall in line with the ejection of the fiery trails. Unless those trails are made smokey, I would expect them to vanish with the flame as the embers wouldn't burn for very long outside of the blast. Plus they don't seem to travel fast enough for being embers.

Technicalities aside, I think it's a very pretty explosion.


From watching videos of real explosions they often eject lots of debris / embers which often travel pretty far. Thats the look I was going for. I would have prefered to have made the trails a bit smokey, but that would increase the already pretty high particle count.

Heres a video showing in part what I based it off.

If you have time, I'm in need of an Explosion FX for a Superweapon-Bomber. Should be about the size of an Alpha-Aurora explosion.

What kind of explosion / colours?

It doesn't really matter, although it should stay realistic, so no green and blue ;-)

Just a normal bomb explosion only bigger

So did you end up finding that particle cannon stuff?

Btw, this looks interesting, any idea how to work it or what it does?

   &#59;MaxIntensityLifetime = 2000	&#59;Laser stays at max intensity for specified time in ms.
   &#59;FadeLifetime = 0			   &#59;Laser will fade and delete.

   &#59;@todo -- add shot ability functionality (instead of instant point A to B)

Not touched code like that for a while, I imagine it does what the info says? Try it :P - I didn't find the particle cannon stuff.

Oh and Stalker, you wouldn't happen to have anymore textures lying about? Those Crysis / HL2 ones have been extremely useful.

fusion's Photo fusion 18 Oct 2009

could i request 2 small things please. [soz i dont have internet so its a little hard to get on here].

1: The blue ferret explosion "from the movie stealth" for aurora's fuel air bomb. never liked that small explosion.
2: Nuke Massive Red Flare Like the one in "Aliens Vs Predator Requim" at the end of the movie. if its to much to ask for them both i will just ask for #2.
I Like Red allot , kind of like the red when u see around DEVIL MAY CRY lol.

Thanks in advance either way. it's a nice thing you got going here , would love to learn myself , just have to find some tuts and get my internet back at home.

Thanks, i'll make good use of them |8

Public effects may be a little slow in being produced for a short while. I have a pretty heavy workload at uni to get through and my priority is EC.

Not sure if you are still doing this Ion, but if you are, could you make a public Napalm/Dragon Tank Fire particle that is better than the current ones? :xD:

I'm not likely to be doing these at the moment. So if someone else wants to give your request a try, go for it.
