nice unit, very creative death!

It is a very pretty ship. Well done in all regards.
Something to consider for your next ship, the smoke "might" be a little thick. It looks very real and believable except for the fact that it is completely opaque; of course I never saw the ship with more "smokey" smoke (more see through), so it might well be that your choice is the best possible one.

The animations look great :thumbsup:

, but the lengths of those anims are a bit over the top IMO. I mean, 60 frames of death surely looks cool, but doesn't add anything that cannot be shown in 20 frames. I mean, take 20 units like these, and you've taken 40 MB of your hard drive :lol:

But still, the death is very well done

thats so cool! nice job!

vingrjoe · Mar 15, 2005

aaglo, to get the desired effects I want, I often need as many frames as I can use for the death animation. When I get more experience with particle systems, I may be able to be more efficient and use less frames. Believe me, I don't enjoy rendering the death animation, it takes forever.

aaglo · Mar 15, 2005

@vinrjoe,
I thought that it must have taken a long time to make that

- it's just that 1.9 mb for a single animation is quite a lot

Nice unit, vingrjoe!

crimson238 · Mar 15, 2005

And my waiting for this unit is over.. I'll download it as soon as I get home. Thanks Vingrjoe.

Nice unit, vingrjoe.

Do you have any suggested stats?

_-Nate-_

vingrjoe · Mar 15, 2005

Nate1976, I would suggest make it close to the Aegis cruiser, give or take a couple points in each category.

Nate1976 · Mar 15, 2005

That's about what I was thinkin, maybe an Aegis upgrade?

Either way, it's an awesome unit.
