any high quality explosions for a liquid filled generator? (PB4a)

[TheJamsh]

keep trying but none of mine seem to fit...

anyone giot anything thatll work?

[Steeveeo]

I could probably whip something up while I wait for the modelling team to finish a couple new features.

What specifications do you have?

ie:

- Color of Liquid
- Type of Liquid (and how it explodes, if it doesnt just spill onto the ground)
- Any other flashy effects you want
- Etc

How about using that Resin texture.

[TheJamsh]

resin texture may look good, although i have a really good looking effect for the flood of liquid onto the floor, i just need something else to make it more'...

volatile.

its basically (for the moment) and ISDF power generator with a green bubble texture applied to the inside to make it look as though its filled with a highly volatile chemical to produce energy. i dont want a huge explosion because that generator upgrades into a nuclear reactor (of which my explosion looks AWESOME.

i have power generator and nuclear reactor explosions but not my chemical reactor...

@ Steeveeo, im after a sort of explosion that send sthe chemical leaking out of the generator as it collapses producing the flood. i have the 'flood' done, jsut need the liquid to look as though its leaking out.

have a free run with it lol, i originally wanted a plume of the chemical liquid to throw up into the air and splater down on the ground making a flood planar...

pfft i duno, enjoy lol, heres a screeny of the generator...



and the flood planar...



the explosions in the rest of my mod are VERY high quality, mostly due to me trying to re-make the GTA 4 explosions. ended up with something different but spectacular all the same...

even if you give a basic concept id be grateful =]

the green on the ground in 2nd pic makes my eyes hurt :-/....

so does the white of this text field....heh...

[TheJamsh]

the green has suddenly become brighter in game, and the generator colour looks horrible lol...

think i played with my graphics settings, but yeh its practically that colour...

thanks to start delay i managed to get the planar to grow, stick for a while, then fade out

LOVE THAT NEW FEATURE!

[Steeveeo]

hmm, I'll see what I can do, can I borrow your ODFs to tweak?

[TheJamsh]

yeh sure. the power gen may appear without a main texture (apart from the bubbles) due to using new .tga's...

ive also removed anything relating to the rest of the mod so you wont get a load of yellow ODF warnings when you stick it in game from the console... ive also given the generator low health so its a little quicker to see the explosion effect...

I finished up your explosion and heres whats new:

- New smoke textures for the after effects.
- New Water Texture for the spillout
- Fixed edging on the puddle.tga file.

[TheJamsh]

cheers buddy! that was quick =]

[Steeveeo]

Yup, I can whip together a nice explosion in less than an hour, a full weapon in about 2 (hopefully balanced and all)

[Nielk1]

I suggest making the bubbles more opaque, and maybe removing the turbine, so it looks like swirling chemicals.

I got it from S when he asked me how is explosion looked.

(Just noticed this)

If that hurts your eyes, you need to do one of the following:

1. Stop staring at the computer screen so long.
2. Turn your gamma WAY down!
3. Stop getting so drunk the night before you go net surfing

[bigbadbogie]

Lol.

And spend less time in the dark room under the backyard with your slave.

Actually, I've been playing EVE online the past 4 weeks or so, and it's nice and dark in space...no really bright things to look at, except for the occaional blinding explosion of something I dont like
