wow! people are impressed at an image transition effect taken from animation shop 3

just one more teleporting effect to do now

then there's simple something where i can have some fun

double post edit

anyway, for the last bloopy teleporting effect, how about something like this?

double post edit

nearly done all of the bloopy sprites, just some small ones left

Alien King
1 Apr 2005, 17:23
well that's all of them bloopy sprites

i'll update the list shortly, let me show u what sort of thing i've just done (this anim is for the effect done just before the worm teleported (orginally it was of a worm talking into the teleporter))

it goes much quicker ingame

double post edit

just so you know, AK. I've done the entire DragonBall animation with my sigworm in it already. if you want the file I can easily post it (my dragonball avatar).

unless there's a color problem with the way I did it, it should work fine.

um yes......

i would like it

double post edit

anyway, seeing as i'll have to edit a few other things on akuryou, what are the order of colours for his dragon ball?

never mind, i've done akuryou aswell

anyway, seeing as i'll have to edit a few other things on akuryou, what are the order of colours for his dragon ball? 250 for the lightest, 215 for the medium, and 140 for the darkest.

it was different in this animation, but I've since changed it to make it simpler for me to remember.

you'll have to chop this up into the peices required, but it should have most of the frames you'll need.

ok, the good news

i've done u anyway, it looks similar

the bad news

i can't use those colours, seeing as they aren't in the 80 to 97 colours i'm limited too

i'll show u what i've done

nice. even though those arent' the right colors they look fine. I like it.

as i said, i'm restricted to the palette that comes with the sprite editor that i had to download again (just to get the palette)

if any1 wishes to help (and i would be very grateful if they did) then the sprites that need doing are huntakilla, glenn and splapp

that way, all of the close combat moves (except starworms) will be done

if they want to do any of them, then just tell me, and i'll give them the stuff

u could try a glow effect using a diffusion method if u want, or just lighten the worm a bit

nice work though

If you're doing it on a transparent background there are really two options:

1. Leave it how it is. Make sure that if he swings the blade it leaves a solid trail like a lightsabre does, though. Or:
2. Put a light blue line down the front surface of the worm. That's roughly like what happens to Earthworm Jim when he fires his gun, but without the silouhetting. If that's a word (since it sure as hell isn't spelt right).

the sprites are actually being made on a black background, which we can change the colour of if we want, seeing as in the game the 1st colour on the palette (which by default is black) is set to transparant

i thought mabye make part of the worm brighter, like it is when the worm fires a gun

in responce to option 2. what?

AndrewTaylor
10 Apr 2005, 14:16
Yes, I just meant that if the background will be made transparent, you can't just use the airbrush tool because you'll just see a black/magenta/whatever mess around the blade. (Well, unless you have an additive sprite routine, which would look great, but require more work and a second sprite.)

Option two was, colouring the front of the worm blue, so that you can see the blade is glowing, without trying to use a "glow" effect, which as I said don't work on transparent.

Like one of these:

i see

and u could use the airbrush tool, cos that just puts on individual pixels, what u can't do is use the paintbrush when it's hardness and opacity settings are less than 100 or whatever

quick edit with airbrush and lighten retouch tools

Oh... I use PSP, and the airbrush does--

Heck, in PSP the airbrush and the pen are the exact same tool with different default settings. There's a slider called "density" that makes it do random pixels like that. I only use that for making soil effects.

yes, i know

that's what sets the airbrush and paintbrush apart

but in most programs the paintbrush and airbrush are different (only because of the lack of settings, i forgot u had PSP too)

Evil Bunny
10 Apr 2005, 17:50
ey, that's actually pretty cool, i guess i could implement something like that, but i'm not really sure, cos it wouldn't have the same light-effect on the worms is stands next to. I'll experement with it, it's not that difficult to do. I first want to do the swing motion, i have something extremely cool in mind for that.

i run my w:a from an edited image (i have the -->german budget version (http://img143.exs.cx/img143/8846/wormscdcover2rt.jpg) where the maps where wrong) mounted with daemon tools!
i don't use a crack...

for the starworms sprite:
make the blue shining thing over the whole worm's face, because the worm isn't exactly 2d!
you can see both eyes, which means you look at it from a sideway position!
and he even holds the saber at the side of the body (in human terms), which means that his whole face should be lit blue, not only the edge of the head!
just my 0.02€...

How about, to make it glow, you take off the dark blue border and replace it with another layer of light blue?

SargeMcCluck
14 Apr 2005, 11:49
The game runs at 50fps I believe. Hence why Deadcode and I used 100Hz to have it uber smooth, and 75Hz to have it run 1.5 times as fast.

Are you all still working on Star worms' Lightsabre?

double post edit

I've got an idea of what I could be!

I've checked the list!

I could be the weapon power sprite (the one that appeares when U hold space on zook, nade etc). Make it have a banana scroll (not stretch) from the worm to the crosshair
Like this:
Note: This is a rough copy, drawings done in paint, with only 3 frames, and rubbish scrolling. Natrually, you would make it smoother, and use the proper banana sprite. Also, it would have to be slower.

Note2: in the other thread, before anyone points this out, I said I didn't have a DECENT animated gif editor. I do have one, but it's rubbish.

Evil Bunny
8 May 2005, 10:46
not at the moment, i've finished 12 of the 15 images. I've stopped working on it because i'm very busy with my finals. I think i'll finish it after i'm done. I've also added 2 sounds that would replace the battleaxe sounds with those of lightsabers.

After i'm done with this i'm going solo on the sprite making issue, i have some cool ideas i would like to work on, rather then make the ones listed here. U'd be welcome to use them, however they'd stray from the topic.

there is no easy way to do it unless u have the software T17 used (and even then it's not easy)

Im working on that, but the hat is so small that it doesnt look well when you turn it and then see it closely. Expect the final version between today and tomorrow :) .

Finally! I spended one day more that I said, but I finally end the first animation!. Now I need to do the landing animations and when the parachute opens. I know that the hat dosent look preety well in a part from the animation, but with a so small hat its almost impossible to do it right. I wish that this help. NOTE: the zip has a gif too, that looks how would it look when flying.

Well, I saw an archive that the name is pallete, hovewer I dont have any sprite editor (plz, give me the url to download it). For making the sprites I used a conbination of a gif editor, paint and flash. Plz, test them to see if they work properly. Now the rest, with an animation when pilot opens the parachute.

1. does any1 have any way of making the crown and scepter in my previous image rotate 360 degrees without going all blurred and horrible

1- Yes, I have, and preety effective. I use flash to rotate them and then I take a screenshot of the work in flash and past it in paint. Its just magical and perfect!
2- I looked in internet and didnt find anithing. I looked the whole thread and didnt find either. Sorry, I sometimes miss these things. And the sprite editor that you have, I didnt find it in google or any other :p .

I will start to work in pilot with jetpack. That will be easy.
And, can my signworm be in the game :) ? I only want the sheep to have my hat.

i used adobe image ready 7.0!
i did however edit an animated gif which i got from the -->w:a page of light (http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/worms/wa/anims/)!
(purpose was to create an avatar...)

if you extract the sprites with the sprite editor from the gfx.dir, you get a narrow, long .bmp file with all the single frames of the animation!
that should be pretty simple to edit in paint!
you would have to edit quite a few sprites though: the worm in flat ground, steep ground left & right and maybe when the worm takes out & puts away the flag!

you could probably edit it once & just copy over only the flag part though...

edit:
maybe you could even copy it directly from my avatar!
with a tool that can open animated gifs (like adobe imageready)!

double post edit

Argh!!! I did an horrible mistake! I made the scepter's turning point to be the middle, when it must be the hands! Sorry for telling this, but I wouldnt finish it. I have a lot better idea. This would really help you to make your work a lot faster. Get a demo or buy the flash animator. Then, try to work there pasting the part of the worm and moving it separetly.

The advantages: HUGES. You will be able to see how is the animation going and for fixing something you will only need to move the copied image, dont need to erase or draw nothing. You will be able to turn the objects. You will have a look of how the animation is going (when you dl it, I will tell you how). And, for finishing, the only thing for ending it, will be copying it into paint is taking a screenshot, pasting over paint and modifying it.

The disadventages: You need to get a flash copy. Look for a demo. Ask a friend for one. You will have no problems.

Dont think that Im lazy, its because it will be better for you. And I dont want to start the whole animation again :p . Belive me. It works if you get flash. You wouldnt be dissapointed.

And I will start to work on preasure is fork-prod. Again, sorry for not finishing it. I will start to work with prod.

2. the preasure sprite is not very good. the fork is to short and plain, and the colours don't look compatible, but never mind. i'll fix that

plz don't stop doing what u were doing earlier to do the preasure sprite, when u could be doing something much more useful

Perhaps you can be trowed in the carpet strike weapon :rolleyes: . Or maybe you can be the mine deployer. These two (the first one its just a joke, but it can beeEEee!) can suit your signworm. Just think that your worm is in the battlefield and he will use a weapon (or be used like one). When you find something nice, see if its free for taking it and ask!
