Sundiata Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 A small fading crater would be nice... Not necessary, but nice to have. Perhaps it could be a graphics option that can be disabled? Either way, I love the effects as they are already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have a GTX1070 and 12 Core CPU and I notice it But yeah you will probably be fine, some people might not. Let me try a small decal so I can go back to my tuna and commit this.

Stan` Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 Actually the engine does not allow it. The impact crater will disapear as quickly as the particles... And it cannot be attached to the projectile else you'd see it flying... So I guess we can call it a day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfinn the Shallow Minded Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Just another question because I expect this game to have the same graphical quality as a triple A title. Could the explosion particle effect more emerge from the area of impact as opposed to it just popping into existence? Maybe it's just the slo-mo that makes it look a bit problematic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGood Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 we've already passed AAA graphics noone in their right mind would spend this much time on anything if there was a budget involved lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexandermb Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Also, could be good to make the dust darker and stronger to hide the crater popping up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to be mildly all-biome friendly, this will be fine on temperate maps but mediterranean and desert maps will contrast a lot more the the darker dirt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That crater will also kill perfs Also I don't see the point of having it if it dissapears too quickly for one to grasp. 2 minutes ago, Alexandermb said: Maybe the same dust but more stronger at the beginning, thought i really don't know how particles works so far. You can change the size and the number of particles (It creates 2D planes) The XYZ velocity, XYZ position, RGB color, AND XYZ force applied to it.

LordGood Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 ah yes, but keep the crater i like craters ballista impacts every 5 seconds are nothing compared to hundreds of units dying, performance issues are negligible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I activated friendly fire so those towers are not taken lightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGood Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 its all about the impact stan also ouchie, even the siege ballistae have no FF, and you can actually control those unrestrained ballista towers yeeting stones into your own fields with nothing you can do about it, I dont know about that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
