So yeah, I'm working on something BIG at the moment, and I'm currently making a sort of "supersonic impact" weapon for it. Bad thing is, I'm not too sure how to make a good-looking shockwave effect for it. I kind of wanted to keep from the classic "9999 white MOPs" idea, basically because it would lag a lot. So I've turned to glows. Currently, I'm using CC's basic glows, but colored white, to represent the shockwave. As you might have imagined, it looks really trash. So, I'm in search of glows for a good Sonic Boom (Air Blast, Impact Wave, call it what you will) effect. Does anyone here know one that could fit that purpose? |

Unless you could make a banana-shaped glow that expandedas it moved, you probably out of luck. Here's a way to make your glow expand though: http://forums.datarealms.com/viewtopic.php?f=73&t=17465&start=0 |

For a really good shock wave effect you'd need to scatter the pixels show to make it look like the dense air is distorting the light. You can't do that in CC currently. |

Maybe a series of white glows with a specific texture can lighten the background to give the appearance of distorted light? |
