 Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 numgun wrote: Your glows are pretty amazing, I mostly do mine just drawing a simple round glow and then applying a built-in effect that comes with paintshop. Any tips from the pro on making glows, how do you it?  Well, probably the same way you make pro sprites. Except you're making black as the background, and you want to make sure the sprite kinda "fades" into black at the edges. But if there's more, fire away. I honestly haven't done it much.

Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 yeah it is a little, but not by too much. it doesnt pierce, which is a good thing.
edit: also numgun, the glows seem to be done using the smudge tool mostly, with some of them being a mix of that and painting. do you use photoshop or GIMP? because either of them can be used to give this effect.

Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 Are you going to make the laser particles stick to stuff when build 21 comes out? That way the explosions don't just float in the air when the object it hits is destroyed.

Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 Capnbubs, do not touch that lazer, it is absolutely perfect. It has everything that makes a weapon good:
-It has an excellent sprite and excellent graphics
-It's effective, but doesn't damage terrain at all
-It's balanced (although Crobos against normal AI is never fair).
-it's unique, there has never been a laser like it, and I've been here since (roughly) build 10!

Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 Capnbubs, i agree with Exalion EXCEPT you should make the lasers sticky particles, because isn't the laser supposed to basically cook people until they explode?

Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 Jesus christ I hate you all.
B21 has sticky PARTICLES.
Particles = MOPixels.
MOPixels = cannot gib!
The "laser" effect is a standard bullet, and the tracer of the gun. The actual explosion is caused by a pinned MOSRotating, probably, but it's an object, not a particle.
And Data has already said that the "stickiness" will be particles only, and even then probably not to actors.

Re: Crobotech Mod Beta 2 Will these particles be able to stick to actors? For example, numguns stake launcher would actually impale enemies? Or at least stick to them? I am anticipating much innovation.

It would give the appearance of units boiling from the inside.
