Orb Shields - Page 2

I would really LOVE to learn max lol. I'm stuck at a point in my modelling abilities where I can't make shit anymore. I need to learn how to make things rotate and stuff. I don't know any of that stuff. Wanna teach me? :P

I'm not saying custom textures is a bad thing.
But this exact same effect could have been done with in-game stuff and two billboards per model instead of one.

iono how to do that yet. my modelling knowlege is VERY limited.

In all honesty, it's not all that creative...different colored orbs that surround a unit....

In any case, it's well done.

These shields really remind me of Super Smash Bros. shields... really... they seriously look like it...

Otherwise, fantastic job on sharing this.

SSB kerPWN'D anyway, so that's okay.

These are really cool. I don't have a use just now, but I can imagine I will in the future.

Why is the black one not see-though at all?

JetFangInferno · 01-02-2008, 04:57 PM

I used a modulate texture so the opacity can't be changed =(

Pyritie · 01-06-2008, 07:46 PM

Oh. I never really understood modulate anyway so :P

JetFangInferno · 02-10-2008, 04:33 AM

Modulate only works on certain textures in the game. From my knowledge, only GenericGlowX_Mod2, Shadow, and MegablastTail (forgot the name) work with modulate. Modulate turns lets you see black and alphas out all the white. Additive does the opposite, making white visible and black invisible.

Hey are you supposed to use it as a buff or an effect to be more accurate?

JetFangInferno · 05-04-2008, 06:22 AM

More like a buff.
