Caster Hand Attachments

Pyritie · 06-25-2007, 05:05 PM

Okay here are some little caster attachments I whipped up. They are based off of the similar wow ones (before you start yelling at me, remind yourself of olof's two dragons), but I made them much better! Now they only use in-game textures and they show up well in-game. You could attach them via triggers, using the "Art - Caster" thing, or whatever! The pack includes the following:

5 elements of attachments
- Shadow
- Holy
- Water
- Earth/Nature
- Fire
Each of the main 5 comes in four levels
- Low
- Medium
- High
- Uber
Two bonus elements available in one level each
- Arcane
- Lightning

Give credits to Pyritie if you use them!

Do they have death and birth animations? (I can't check)

**erwtenpeller** · 06-25-2007, 06:28 PM

And birth, also verry important.

Did you say custom textures? They dont look custom to me, they look like in-game graphics. Wich, if the case, would be better.

Pyritie · 06-25-2007, 06:44 PM

They have death animations, yes.

Dammit, meant to put in-game. >_< Fixed now.

I have no idea what to do for a birth animation though. Just a simple scale?

Rao Dao Zao · 06-25-2007, 06:53 PM

All the birth you need is surely just the particles being switched on in the stand; unless you've got geometry lying around that needs to be faded/etc manually.

Pyritie · 06-25-2007, 07:13 PM

But the main glowy part is actually a plane, not just particles. Should I scale that in?

Rao Dao Zao · 06-25-2007, 07:22 PM

Fade it in. Presumably you're using an Additive filtermode, so you should be fine.

Pyritie · 06-25-2007, 07:25 PM

Will do.

EDIT: Fixed!

This would be awesome for a Magic the Gathering themed game... Uhm, wait a second! I just happen to be designing one, myself.

~Approved~

small fx like this are always nice for finishing touches.

Pyritie · 06-29-2007, 09:46 AM

Yay! ^_^

Do you suppose you could make some effects that rather than being hand attachments (more for a caster-type hero) could you make weapon attachments that go well with being attached to weapons (for a more melee effect).

JetFangInferno, if you read this: you are a god effect modeler, please attempt some weapon attachment effects as well.

Pyritie · 07-03-2007, 12:42 PM

I don't get what you mean. Can't these work?

Hey, I could use this. Things looked a little blank with just a ground attachment. This will fill the rest of the unit's body. Thanks for your hard work.
