Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
anyway, back on topic.
Can you make a cocking animation where the metal area slides back as if to eject a casing from the spent grenade?

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
That would be for someone else to do. I don't have the time to spend on making things that I won't use.
Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
IIRC, Spent grenades don't have casings -- the whole thing's launched. What you'd be looking for is a rotating sort of rechamber animation for the ammo drum, but since the drum is largely offscreen it wouldn't do much good.
But admittedly, a "cocking" animation could work for rule-of-cool. *shrug*

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
Actually, any grenade launcher that uses 40mm grenades (E.G The M79) does have casings to deal with. That said, Eriances GL appears to be a rocket propelled grenade, rather than an oversized pistol bullet like the 40mm.

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
My only complaint (and an admittedly minor one) is that I'm used to the upward kick of the Quake grenade launcher. It serves to somewhat justify the loft of the grenade.
Not significant enough for a redraw, though. I'd rather see that work go into more weapons.

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
Do they now? I know little about noon-rocket-propelled grenade launchers IRL, oddly -- the former always comes to mind.
Still, it's a drum, so it probably wouldn't eject the shell realistically. But realism is overrated sometimes.

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
It can be a drum magazine, just like a tommy gun, and have an ejection (port ? not sure that's the right word). while you're talking about the rule-of-cool, there has been a pump-action 40mm grenade launcher (EX-49 or something like that). just saying it here in case someone feels uninspired with all those shotgun sprites lying around.

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
Seeing as no decorate has been written for these new grenade sprites, I'm a bit confused with how they should be done. I'm especially unsure of what the top right frame is supposed to be

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
I'm pretty sure that the top-right frame is the base eriance made for the sprites.

I've already decorated the weapon the day after I finished editing the sprites, although I've not released the new update.Xtyfe wrote:Seeing as no decorate has been written for these new grenade sprites, I'm a bit confused with how they should be done.

Probably because you're logged into dropbox and it's your file. When I try and get it, I get a 403 error.Eriance wrote:Strange, works for me. O.o
Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
Confirming, I'm getting an error page. That link is probably intended for you (the uploader) only.

Re: Demon Eclipse (WIP) - Grenade Launcher Complete p.225
Is the new beta worth checking out? I played the last one, and from the changelog from the first post, I don't see anything of major difference between this beta over the last, or is there?
