the first explosions looks good, the 2nd too - but i think the 2nd one is way too big. What i like most are the little depris that are vanishing after some time. That one looks really neatThanks, Huor. As it for it being too big, we can never get consensus on that, lol. Some people say, NOT BIG ENOUGH, and some people say,TOO BIG.
Where’s Goldilocks when you need her?
Anyways, still a WIP so there might be some adjustments

I just checked some other videos on moddb and they all don’t work for me. The strange thing is it worked some weeks ago…

Sorry, slow PC. It is for DoD, maybe.

A couple of things i found in FL that are unused so modified them a bit and stuck them in my mod,
This shimmers and sparkles and rotates
This pulses in an eye searing fashion every few seconds
The neutron star effect, nothing really new apart from it was missing so i put it back. I know others have done this as well but it still looks cool.

Been a long long time since I’ve seen the end sequence of the storyline, but those might be the effects from trents ship as the artifact activates the hypergate.

Can you tell us please what are their original nicknames, that we can use them?

Tbh everything except the neutron star effect has been modified, so you won’t get them to look the same in a month of sundays unless you know what i did to them. I shouldn’t really have said unused effects as they are used (at least the original effects are), but only in SP. They certainly aren’t used in MP and the neutron star effect isn’t used at all, no idea why, as it looks cool as hell imho.
That said, the effects i modified are,
gf_nomadwormholeopening
dyson_city_mainreactorglow
dyson_city_creationbeam
gf_neutronstar -
… I got no nice pictures - but maybe you want to have a look yourself:

Err, no, it’s the CRC of the effect’s name in the ALE file (specifically, the AEL portion). That’s why it’s called “effect_crc”
It’s case-sensitive. If you don’t have a CRC tool, I like Lancer Solurus’ one.
