[REL] Better Torpedo Graphics - Page 3

Decoman · 03-15-10, 10:13 AM

I have to work on the images, but it shouldnt take long. I don't want to highjack the thread so I'll focus on what I think looks ok, but I am open for corrections. I intend to link the .dds file(s) here and then OP can zip it an name it.

I don't see any reason why there can't be more than one mods for this. I just want to get this one done and see how it fares.

Edit: Ops, I have to make a change somehow for that additional acoustic torpedo.

Also what file(s) do we have to modify to change these ourselves?

Edit: Two files. They end up in the same folder and are both .dds files. That other file removed the alpha and also the ugly thin outline for the torpedo, that has no use afaik. Hm, and it is also used for a dark overlay for torpedo reloading.

Torpedoes.dds
TorpedoPage.dds

I had to change the color schematic, to make all the acoustic torps fit in:

Edit: I like the one below the best. It keeps the blue and orange indications separate from the markings for improved acoustic torpedoes.

Of course not! The more we have the better it is for the community. Conus00 has also come up with some very nice looking torpedoes.
Your ones look very good. I like the colour scheme you have come up with. It is a lot less "Rainbow of many colours" than my first effort!
Looking forward to a release. Keep up the good work.

Thanks

There is one issue with this torpedoes.dds file. The part found in TorpedoesPage.dds has a different size for the container (well it has now when I have lenghted the torpedo). I am thinking that I either have to shave off 10 pixels, or find a way to change the scale of the container, that contains a mask, that show as dark overlay, when a torpedo is being beloaded. I can create the proper mask, but I need to lengthening the container somehow.
