New unit: Ghost Ship - the Black Pearl

[aaglo]

This one is one weirdo unit.
An undead ship with the most strangest animations I've done.

And the files are quite large - I had to upload them in two separate zip's.

The sounds aren't anything special, but they'll do fine for me.

The flics & ini-file

Sounds and civilopedia graphics

Here is a demo of the animations. Default, victory, run, fidget, attackA (spirits), attackB (cannons) and death


And here are the civilopedia images (two to choose from)

IT'S DONE! FIRST POST! Very, very good Aaglo. Do you mind if I make an alternative civilopedia pick with my misty clouds?

 

[aaglo]

No, you didn't make the first post. I did.

Go ahead and do what you like

 

[MarineCorps]

Nice! Glad it's done and fast to.

 

[embryodead]

Awesome! Ghost attack is great, just as I imagined it

Oh, and Aaglo, you have inspired me to actually make a mod I've been considering for a while, and use this as a hidden natioanlity ship.

 

[Drift]

Thank you. Truly one of the best units ever made.

 

[DoubleT]

wow great job

 

[TheMorpheus]

Very good work, great unit

 

[Aluminium]

Wow, the Flying Dutchman!

 

[Prussian]

That's pretty cool. The spirit effect looks great.

This is a frame of the death animation, in FLICster, with alpha blend on. Wouldn't this look a little odd in game? I'm talking about those odd light spots by the sails. Are these just lighter background colors? I mean, it is light pink, and then light gray. I haven't been able to test it in game yet, sorry, so I'm not sure how it would look, but is it supposed to be like this?

 

[aaglo]

yes, it's supposed to look that way. It looks fine in the game, don't worry.

 

[mrtn]

Kiitos! (I think that's right, my Finnish vocabulary is extremely limited )

 

[Vuldacon]

aaglo, this is Fantastic! ...Wonderful animated Effects! Marvelous and Unique Unit indeed.

 

[erez87]

Just as a suggestion, could you made death flc also as the ship just fade away? After all, it already sunk... and been destoried... now it's ghosty...

 

[Arne]

Looks cool. How about making a brigg or briggantine now?

Wasn't here for quite a long time - and now there are so many great new units Like this one

Looks absolutely great, esp. the "spirits attack" effects
