What effects you use for ambient dust ?

I was working on the Southern Cross trade lane and stabilized wormhole (jump gate) today, and whipped up some interesting effects. It’s mostly mix and match with vanilla stuff, but it still looks pretty good, I think.

Nice work!

Yeah, looks good man.

Lovely! I also like the horizontal tradelane, nice work

Exellent! 8]

Good stuff, especially those guns rotating. Cheers you guys.

i like that gate. makes me wonder whether makin kinda X-like gate would be possible by ALE, too.

Here’s another gate effect I was playing with. It’s a bit too over-the-top, so I won’t be using it (at least in this form), but I thought I’d show it off anyway.

My test of blackhole and dinamic asteroids.

Everything in that video makes me want to throw up. xD

Very cool! Nice work!

Oh, how sweet is that…

Please, dear god, somebody tell me you can produce this effect in Freelancer with that sound effect. I’ve been wanting to have an easter egg weapon like this ingame for some time. But the way the sound file works, and the effect animation works, I’m uncertain it can so simply. I’d love it if one of you, much wiser and more tallented scripter/coders, could pull this off for me. It’s a little piece of nistalgia that I’ve been missing in FL.

It would be absolutely epic to see that blaring out the barrel of the Liberty Siege Cruisers cannon.

WoW !!! The LSD EATER GUN ^^
Nice effect

I won’t comment on the round itself changing colour as it’s out of my experience, but the flash and music is at least possible, though playing an entire song might be a stretch.

However, if you made the gun’s firing noise a bar of the song, set the refire rate to match the length exactly, you can have one bar of the song repeating.
It’ll be fiddly, but it’d work.

There’s explosions used for caps dying that flash your screen, and they could be easily linked to the muzzle flash if I’m not mistaken.

All up, it’s probably possible to do, maybe someone will find it funny enough to take the time to do it.
