[WIP][Client] More Pew Pew - Requesting Opinions

I would need to change this manually everytime you update your mod on PAMM?

Yeap, it's the second one you want to set to 0. Word of warning, you will have to do this again soon when I release the mod. Or if I update it at a later date

Thanks. I haven't actually checked this out in-game (just your Youtube videos) so there is a chance I might actually like the rings once I see them in-game

also.... hehe...

you can paste the entire file into jsonlint.com to format the file, if people had to work with that super ugly block of text... well let's just say that'd be no fun.

EDIT: press ctrl+A to select everything, ctrl+C copies the selection, and ctrl+V pastes selection. Shortcuts are awesome.

Indeed, everything that isn't inside the src/ dir in my mod is actually generated files. I don't need to touch any of those files so I just generate them as condensed files. I could probably add indentation to them.... just need to update my build file.

So it seems that I am pretty much ready to release this mod. All that is left to do is perhaps clean up and make the generated files a bit easier to read (for the sake of other modders), and of course I need to make an icon! And maybe also a trailer vid. Unfortunately I am pretty terrible at making promotional videos so that's a bit unlikely.

It's a cool mod, love the artillery effects!

Stacks well with PA-FX mod, with all it's flashing building stuff, and the Air Trails mod.

Also, recommend playing this mod with the darker nights, it really does lighten up the night sky when a battle takes place.

GG.

@dom314 tried this mod and love it, a big improvement over the standard effects.

The only thing that stood out to me though after doing this is how 'basic' the commanders primary weapon effect is, for an update fancy working your magic on the commander weapon effects as well?

Yeap, I nearly forgot it again. I spent most of the weekend away from the computer though so I had some time to think of some effects I could try.

Update!
- Ant

- Make the trail a bit less washed out​

- Commanders

- Added effect for each type of commander primary weapons​

I think the pointlight looks a bit funky. I might rework that a little bit or remove it.

I like them one thought, maybe give the 3rd one shown in the video a different trail colour than the second as at a distance I don't think you'd notice a difference between 2 and 3, whereas the first with the blue tint is easily readable....

I don't really like the 3rd one at all. The first two are cool. And the circle light on the ground looks out of place too.

I'm unsure about the point light, I think it might look really good in game as it lights up units and building... I think I'd like to see in game footage before deciding on it...

I think it needs more pointlights throughout the tail.

Yeap I can do that. I did something like that for the leveler effect. I avoided it because if I want it to look really nice I would have to have the light color change over time to match the gist of the trail. Not too much effort but effort nonetheless.

Have you tried it in-game? Just so I could perhaps pick your brain for what you don't like about it :3. It was a bit tedious to come about with three distinct effects - at least on a creative level (my poor programmer's brain) - so a bit of a rework would be preferred I guess.

I am keen to hear what you have to say about it!

Playing around a bit. Going to bed, but here is something of an idea. Let me know what you think

That is superb

I like it, now only if we had more variation in the death explosions....

nice one for the commanders! also an overcharge idea?
i do dislike the bolo ammo tough as it does;t sound like it's new ammo at all, as or the leveler it sound soud but that one i like!
