Windburn · September 2004

Yeah i agree with johndoe, the blink could use some re-concepting, something 'warpy/teleporty' (i know it's not the best c&c, but perhaps someone else can explain it better). But wow, those others are absolutely stunning- you've done some really exceptional work here Shaz, they are bloody fantastic <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Looks good, but you still have the Resource bar, why not remove it?

You said:
"Yes I like it, this am good. I will use, but I am on them as a crossing" (best translation I could find for "Überbrücker")

Well... great job you've done here, Shaz. Definitely worth a download!  </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> 
im not fantastic at the german, dont use translators they arent very good. Überbrücker from wat i was told means cheater, or someone who is unfair.

CaptainPanaka · September 2004

ah.... Überbrücker... well.... "Schummler" is the correct word <img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /> Or we also say "Cheater" for that so. ^^ Überbrücker means more... uh... I know "Überbrückung" ("over-bridge" ^^ ). The meaning depends on the rest of the sentence. <img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

On topic: Any updates, yet? I'd really like to use the parasite ch, soon <img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

Since you asked for it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />
I'm still messing around on a blink replacement.

EDIT: Picture removed, newer picture following.

CaptainPanaka · September 2004

hm... still the blink ch is... uh... it's okay but... still doesn't fit imo <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />
good to see progress, though <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Clashen · September 2004

looking great Shaz, love the gore and metabolize sprites <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

EDIT: Make the spore sprite Xenocide and change the Spore-sprite imo.

You didn't read my full post, shame on you!
I changed the picture, has an updated blink CH.

P.S. I think the spore and xenocide crosshairs should be switched up, what do you guys think?

Vash_Fourty_Five_Lc · September 2004

Either way Im using it. Looks great my man, your doing good work here on teh forums.

Shazbot · September 2004

Here's an update, I'm kinda stuck on charge... anyone got any ideas?

I'm also planning on changing umbra, and primal scream if I can find some creativity to do it.

EDIT: Removed picture, newer version following.

You could add the tusks to the gore crosshair.

or perhaps just have 2 tusks on there own.

just another perspective to think about <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' />

Shazbot · September 2004

Heh, thanks for the ideas. Why didn't I think of that? heh

Mr_JeburtO · September 2004

you genna be redoing the gorge sprites or leave them as they are?

CaptainPanaka · September 2004

Looking good so far. Blink is fine now. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />
For swipe I'd suggest to make them "crossed", so it doesn't look too much like the one for leap. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Umbra is okay like it is imo. ^^

Primal scream.... uh... sorry no idea atm <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' />

dashaus · September 2004

hmm i think they all look pretty darn good <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /> gj...now for charge you need a crossahir..hmmm well maybe charge could look a little like the stomp sprite with some modifying and maybe the stomp sprite could look like ripples of water?

hmm..hoipe that was useful

Ya, i'll be redoing the gorge's crosshairs. I'm planning on doing that last.

douchebagatron · September 2004

those are all great, but for the blink instead of a swirling type thing i was thinking more of a straight one, kinda like this.

(dramatization of a blink xhair)

Windburn · September 2004

Ohh i dunno, i really like the swirly now, that fits to what my impression of a blink crosshair should look like. Really nice Shaz <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Shazbot · September 2004

Update <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />
I changed the acid rocket, I don't think it looked too good in game. Still need an umbra and a bilebomb CH. I think the healspray may need some work. What do you guys think?

cortex · September 2004

:o looks nice, i especially like the devour, swipe + bite ones. nice job <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Windburn · September 2004

Just for an idea for umbra, how about something like what john doe posted earlier?
Something cloudy, but not stereotypical clouds, so they still fit the form of the rest of the crosshairs. Bile bomb has me stumped - perhaps a ball of cloudy substance surrounded with swirls or swishes. (I tried to talk graphically, i really did!)

*edit* looking back over the last few pages, perhaps something that would work for bile bomb is using what you had before for acid rocket, and putting a ball of something in the middle?

The latest ones are lookin' damn fine <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

Invazn · September 2004

can you make them red?

Shazbot · September 2004

Well, I'm going to make them so they're yellow in-game. So that they would match the defaults, and match the alien theme better (IMO). I'm thinking about making a seperate version where each species has a different color.

MrSocks · September 2004

that'd be cool
kinda like your marine upgrade sprites
different colors progressing as you get to higher life forms <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

TheGuy · September 2004

I know it may be kind of obvious, but make the spore one green....

Mr_JeburtO · September 2004

yay u used my charge idea <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

douchebagatron · September 2004

i really like the default bilebomb xhair, what about trying for something like that?
