Hi all,
I have coded missile bays and missiles for a "soon" to be released SS patch. However the current selection of artwork in SS doesn't have a good missile. If anyone would like to make one, I would appreciate it. The missile artwork needs to be this same size (32x32 pixels) in PNG format with antialiased edges on a transparent background PNG 32x32 pixel sample and could roughly look like this but thinner and more "missile like": >> ![]() Ideally, I would like missiles with slightly different color markings so players can tell one missile type from another when it's in flight since players can destroy them as they are on their way to their target(s). New art would speed their introduction into the game. NOTE: this is not a missile design thread and I will not answer questions about their functionality or details beyond how they should look. Thanks for reading. Send me a PM if you have an entry for us to consider. -JonC _________________ JonC :: Star Sonata Dev Star Sonata » YouTube Channel :: Twitter Feed :: Bug Database :: Wiki For support, please create a support ticket here. |

Also, if the missile art is accepted by the dev team, there will be an in game reward for the effort. The in game reward is TBD.

NUKES RULE!!
I reckon you should study real ICBM missile designs and base a few designs off that Maybe a few of these in 32 by 32 pixels Aye? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ...

Something like this?
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I think Yellow, white and light blue works the best so far. Tell me if you want any changes to those. ![]() Last edited by Takuhi on Fri Feb 29, 2008 9:10 am, edited 1 time in total. |

I made one last night in Wings 3D, had a few troubles rendering it cleanly for a 2D picture at 32x32 (was rendering funny which was magnified by having to shrink it so much), I'll see if I can post it later today (I'm at school atm)

Would it be a good idea to add different glow effects for each type of missile?
I'm assuming there *are* different types. e.g. An EMP one has a blue glow, an explosive nuke a red one etc. |

I'm assuming there *are* different types. e.g. An EMP one has a blue glow, an explosive nuke a red one etc. Just had a look at them with glows and doesn't work too great. Plus if tons are going to be flying around, there isn't much point putting a glow overlay on them. Might as well just change the colour of the particle trail coming off them. |

Takuhi - I love your missiles.
Can you split them up into two pieces: the base missile and then the highlight in gray scale so we can make the highlight pulse in and out like the Porpoise or Serenities? _________________ For support, please create a support ticket here and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Like this?
Base: ![]() Glow: ![]() I'm new to the way we combine base and color layer to achieve multicolor effects with only one piece of artwork. So I'll get back to you one this. Thanks. |
