ZZZ FX - Treewyrm - 08-05-2014

Here is the initial version of FX as I had promised.

Puns and jokes aside all comments unrelated to actual effect will be mercilessly deleted. You had been warned. Enjoy.

Hmm that is rather nice looking. I love how it moves back and forth like that, like it is refreshing the shield or something similar. That is neat. And it even seems to originate from the shield dome thing on the ship, so nice. I am not sure what I think of the explosions and ripples yet, they look good though.


RE: ZZZ FX - Havok - 08-05-2014

It is a very nice effect indeed. Seems to be coming from the core itself, which is also glowing nicely. I do like the look of it quite alot, and if I may put a fitting sneak advertisement in here, it would fit the Ingenuus' roleplay beautifully, with our power core and EM Fields and all.

Is that sphere crystal transparent? Love the particle effect that it is emitting! You've really outdone yourself Treewyrm, with this whole piece. Perhaps the ship could also have a unique shield to pair with the visual effect? Something akin to how nomad ships have veils, and display a unique visual when the shield takes damage. A pure-type shield would fit as well, if that crystal powering the shield is special.

Wow. Taking shields to another level.
Awesome!

Treewyrm, MIGHTY IS HE!

seriously. that effect is perfect. and the coloring is so discordian.

* Sabru makes Treewyrm an honorary discordian

very good effect - and more importantly ....

can all the drama cease then? - cause - with that in place - there is practically NO basis for it left anymore


RE: ZZZ FX - Moberg - 08-06-2014

Though Order still saw a nomad effect. A very paranoid character could say that after the sighting the nomad parts were hidden away in some station. I expect that it gets more easily resolved when the nomad effect is removed as quickly as possible, though.

Also, insanely good effect.
Can't wait for nomicron update.

Depends. Unless they kindly remove effect from the ship for time being until this one is added the Order is still within capacity to go inRP hound on them on the basis of what they saw in-character within the game. Once the effect is in I suppose it can be trivially proven that it wasn't in fact related to nomad/dk stuff at all. That would be my deal with it, simple.

cont.: on a side-note I have slightly modified effect so that the waves fade when the ship is moving. But once your ship stops it'll fade in back. It is done so that the effect would not obstruct vision during traveling as it remains visible even if you're in cockpit mode. This way there is fancy effect but at the same time it doesn't hinder movement and combat as you'd have some velocity anyway.

Why would the drama cease? The RP involved is cool to watch from an outside and impartial source. The Order vs TAZ affair is something to go read these forum every day.

And about that effect... it's simply awesome!
