First mod; be kind :P
Published on April 18, 2008 By Lost_WLd In Sins Modding

This is a maligned graphic mod I've been working on over the past year or so. I've rebuilt it quite a few times and am doing so again for the Entrenchment Expansion. I hope to actually finish it this time around.

 

I'm currently working on the TEC effects. Unfortunately this modding thing is still new to me, so its taking me a little while to turn out new particle effects.

 

 

Thanks to Annatar for answering my mod questions.

 

 

Click 2x to get to the HD version on youtube and excuse my poor video capturing skills.

Feedback is appreciated.

Merge with 7 DEADLY SINS is nearly complete. And it looks AWESOME...
By the way, I loved the way you have the Advent sieging BEFORE you just changed it, from your first youtube video. I liked the fancy glowing orbs of plasma raining down and then exploding electricty all over the planet.
If you do change it, I would love to get my hands on what you did to make the plasma globes. I ave another use for them for a new race I am making. Actually I am resuurecting a race from STAR CONTROL, its the MYCON. Those orbs will be perfect for their primary weapon.

BTW, can't wait for the next release. Just be sure to include what files you changed. That was a BIG help in merging.

Keep up the good work.

I have a newer video of the Advent siege. I've changed it a little bit based on some feedback.

Advent Siege Revisted

The next version of the mod should be done by this weekend. I have three days off so I'm spending all of them modding. I just have to mess with finer details like Advent muzzle and hit graphics, beam effects, their sieging, Desolator siege, TEC/Vasari LRM's, the Rapture, defense structures...
ok I still have a little bit to do but, I'm trying.

P.S. The glowy orb you saw in the first video is still in the mod. It's just exclusive to the Revelation.

um, why is it 7min. long? the actual thing ends at about 50sec.

i liked it, but what's with the purple near the end of the explosion?

The video is 7min long because the song is and I didn't want to cut it.

I don't see any purple in the explosion though...

As the orb travels, it expands and then condenses. When it is condensing, it turns purple/pink for a second, then back to blue. Maybe make it a lighter shade of blue? the color it turned was a bit too different from the initial color. Maybe i'm missing something obvious though.

The second flash is now more inline with the end color.

Welp, I spent about 30+ hours over the weekend trying to finish this thing, but I couldn't quite get it done. I have work the next two days so I won't have too much time to mod. I'm still going to try to finish it ASAP though. I know Danman and Adama are waiting for the new version to merge it.
Sorry for the wait.

So as a peace offering I present this 320x240 cheesy clip show. You can't see any of the finer details but you'll get a general idea.

P.S. Sorry for the sleep deprived camera work...
