[Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
Would anybody be able to make sprite set for a superweapon projectile for me? I've been trying to make a good Black Hole Cannon weapon, but there aren't any projectile sprites that fit what I'd like to do. What I had in mind, standard projectile a little bit larger than a rocket, normal enough explosion animation, but then after that it sticks around for a few seconds playing a looping animation (kind of like Lux's Lucent Singularity ability, in League of Legends, if you've played it. Not really necessary), and then a much larger explosion.
If anybody could do this, that would be awesome! I utterly fail at stuff like this (I've tried, believe me).

Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
Zero Tolerance has a weapon that is black hole-ish, and it might have what you're after.
Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
Kind of, but not exactly what I'm looking for. There wait-and-rotate animation looks alright, but I'm looking for a smaller projectile and explosion, and a massive explosion afterward.
Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
How about the Dark Matter Gun from Quake 4? I'll also need to use that one, so I can give it to you once I'm done with the rip...
Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
That might work for part of it, yeah. I remember being unsuccessful with trying to get projectile sprites for the Dark Matter Gun when I was working on Q:NA, though. 

Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
You just have to be a little bit more persistant, that's all
the Dark Matter Gun's projectiles are globes, so it doesn't matter if they're sprites or not, a globe will always look the same, no matter which direction you look at it. Using the hidden ammo room at "Nexus core" level, it should be easy to hard rip the Dark Matter Gun.
Once I'm done with it, I'll upload it to here. I still need the correct measures for the frames, if you could help me with that, I'd be more than happy to present all the frames.
As for the projectile itself...well, here is a little "sumthin" I made. It needs some work (for example, electric discharges and such), but I'm done with the hard part for ya. It was meant to be an anti-matter projectile for the Anti-matter cannon in Tristania 2, but with a little work, I made them to be small blackholes
This should be a fine size for a projectile...bigger than a rocket or a BFG blast, but still not big enough to block your vision.

Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
That's awesome! Now I just need an initial projectile and an explosion for the vortex part.
Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
The explosion will be hard-ripped from Quake 4 very soon (the original Dark Matter Gun explosion should do it). As for an initial projectile...I might have that one too,if you could show me an example, what an "initial projectile" should look like.

Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
Well, dunno if you still need it, but actually Hunter's Moon already have Dark Matter Gun ripped from Quake 4 with sprites and stuff
if this can be usefull, then i show the explosion code and sprites.
Spoiler:I did those sprites, since it's a bit impossible to rip the original Dark Matter Ball because it is pure shader code done in id Tech 4.

Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
Yeah, that is better than I expected for something like this! I don't know how, but you made sprites look like a full on Id Tech 4 shader. 

Re: [Request]Black Hole Gun projectile sprites
Revilution, that's awsum stuff!!!1!11!1!!ONEONEONE!
I'll be done with the explosion today, I hope.
