Hey guys,
I´ve been working on some fxs for Pixie to celebrate my collaboration with Podmark to get the character done (don't miss the preview on Podmark's skins thread!).
Here are the results of my attempts:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Pixiefxs2_zps682eb313.jpg)
They are a teleport self spell, a pixie dust cone and a teleport others spell.
As I've said to you already, these are really cool.
These effects will be included when the Pixie skins and skope are released.
Very nice. Nice to see another FXer around too!
That looks pretty good for your first attempt at making an FX, Windblown. :cool:
Don't know how I missed this thread, nice work Windblown.
Thanks guys,
I've made two minor fx. The first one is to be used with FFX "sleep state swap", so the sleeping character shows those ZzZ while he is sleeping. The second one is to change the effect that shows when a character gets possessed. This last one tries to represent Karma's psychic energy, as she is the only character with a possession power in my game. This effect will appear in the possessed character's head instead of Tombstone's tiny skulls.

Windblown,
I have to say that everything that you have done thus far has been absolutely stunning!
Keep up the fantastic work! :thumbup:

Ditto...You are showing some master level skills in your FX's and skopes. I love it.
Cool!
Thanks for your kind words guys!
New FX for today, a diamond shard to go with Podmark's Bling! skins:

Really nice Windblown. Can't wait to see more.
Nice! I like the sound effect.
These are awesome Windblown! :thumbup:
Pixie is fun in game,You and Podmark make a great team,thanks to both of you for your efforts :cool:
It's been a long time since I've updated this thread, but today I bring you a bunch of wind FX to go with the updated skope of Wind dancer:
Preview (http://s1300.photobucket.com/user/Windblow85/media/wind%20dancer%20v2_zpskswzuxlq.mp4.html)
I think that the third one is the only one that needs explanation, it's a melee FX (Wind dancer could fire compressed air into an enemy's eardrums to cause him vertigo). My favorite one is the cone FX.
Nice job, it's great seeing her in action.
Very nice Windblown. I always enjoy seeing how other people bring FX to life. It's very inspiring.
Not only is windblown a master skoper, but a creator of great fx as well. Looking good my friend.
Wow, winblown you have blown my mind (sorry for the pun :D). Where can i download your fx? I think i have the Pixie pack but i would also like the rest.
Thank you guys!

Pixie FX pack was released with Pixie skope in Heroforce (Podmark's section), Bling! FX was released with Bling! skope (at the same site), Wind Dancer FX pack will be released with the updated skope there too, but I still have to pack them up and send them to Podmark so he can do some small skin adjustments.
In fact, Podmark and me are collaborating to bring these New X-men characters to FF, so all my skopes and FX for them will be released at his page together with his skins.
Nice work WB! I like the character packs, but the little touches of the state swaps are really cool.
New FX to go with my last skopes:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/th_Tag%20Wither%20and%20Icarus%20FX_zps2jgxiajv.mp4) (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Tag%20Wither%20and%20Icarus%20FX_zps2jgxiajv.mp4)
- The first FX represents Tag's psionic ability to make people run away from a person (the thug runs away from Wither here), he would say, "Tag, you're it" when he used his powers on someone, so I've added that text to the FX.
- The second FX represents Wither's death touch. I've skoped an animation for Wither where he takes off one of his gloves to use with this FX.
- The last one represents Icarus' angelic voice, which was used on one occasion to calm down a panicked Lockheed.
Those are really neat, windblown!
Non-FX Related Question: And how did you make the Thug run away from another character? At first, I thought that it was just an area attack, but you make it seem like Tag gave Wither an ability or something like that.
Thanks spyder!
I gave Tag a panic melee attack with a 360º radius which only affects enemies so if he uses it in Wither, enemies will run away from him (kind of, because the thug is just panicked but the effect is similar to Tag's powers) while Wither is unaffected.
Ah, ok!
That's a pretty clever way to use a power! :D
wow, these are amazing windblown. that animation for wither with the removable glove is crazy cool
Very nice, that glove is a nice touch!
Yeah, the glove effect is a really nice touch. Some very cool FX here Windblown.
Thank you guys,
New FX pack for Wallflower, the pheromone manipulator of the New Mutants squad:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/th_Wallflower%202_zpsnixbrtgt.mp4) (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Wallflower%202_zpsnixbrtgt.mp4)
She could manipulate the emotions of others, making them sleepy, in love, scared... This pack contains three different FX (as shown at the video).
these are cool fx WB, really sweet that you're making fx for each of your skopes.
Very nice WindBlown, just out of curiosity, is the mist/smoke around her part of the Skope, or part of the FX?
It's just an FX that I've made to be used with the 'Pheromone Field' attribute. It pops from time to time during the game.
I've been playing with some FX and Nifskope and discovered that we can make the effects to last more time, so I've used this new information to make some temporal bubbles for Tempus and now they last during the time that her enemies are frozen in time:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/th_Tempus%20FX_zpswfq6dsit.mp4) (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Tempus%20FX_zpswfq6dsit.mp4)
The last fx previewed is to be used with a teleport power to represent her ability to travel in time.
Here's a preview of Nature Girl during gameplay:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/th_Nature%20Girl%20FX_zpsztilcixz.mp4) (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Nature%20Girl%20FX_zpsztilcixz.mp4)
In the first FX she calls for a bird to help her (this is my favorite one), in the second one she calls for a swarm of bees. The last animation shows her summoning a couple of bamfs to fight along her.
Windblown you are the John Williams of Keyframes. And i'm 100% serious. How did you pull off the teleporting bamfs attack? They blinked the thug away right?
That is just AWESOME! :eek2: :eek2: :eek2:
Wow...I am sooo unworthy here. :blush:
Thanks everybody! ^_^

Nature Girl has the Summoner attribute, so she can summon a Bamf. I've given to the Bamf skope a ranged animation where he disappears for a while. In game that's the animation I've selected for a "teleport other" power, so it looks like he's teleporting the enemy away. Glad you liked it.
I've been playing with Nifskope to make some fx light up their surroundings, I thought that Dazzler would be a perfect character to try them:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/th_Dazzler%20effects_zpsilpklhhl.mp4) (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Dazzler%20effects_zpsilpklhhl.mp4)
Fantastic work, Windblown! Looks awesome :thumbup:
The Human Torch could use that too.
:thumbup: Those are really amazing WB! It really adds to the effect. What was happening to the thug when he was in the corner, it looked like he was in a stun loop of some sort.
Nice!
Those are beautiful WB. Looking at what you keep putting out, I think I can pretty much retire from FX'ing :P But seriously, really nice work on those.
Very clever power set up WB!
Thanks guys!

That fx represents Dazzler ability of "creating a chaotic cascade of sparkling lights and colors that severely upsets other people's equilibrium", I use it with a ranged grapple power.
Here's a new fx I've made for daglob's Negasonic Teenage Warhead, an X-men student who appears in the Deadpool film as Colossus sidekick. Unlike her comics counterpart, who was a telepath/precognitive mutant, this version of the character has some kind of nuclear explosion powers which she uses to charge at her enemies with great power:

Looks great. You really know how to capture these powers in game!

Agreed, you really have a natural ability to be able to know exactly the right pieces to use for each Character and FX. Really impressive.
Thaks guys, I'm trying to make the characters that I skope different from each other through the fx/animations.
Btw, Network's fxs have been expanded:
(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/th_Network%20fxs_zps9uxkxnex.mp4) (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag94/Windblow85/Network%20fxs_zps9uxkxnex.mp4)
These powers should be used only in mechanical enemies, so she can control them, paralyze them or discharge their batteries. The last one of the video is the one where she summons the Blackbird for help that I previewed some weeks ago.
Nice dude. I wish more people were doing fxs.

Agreed.
Those are great! I love how you took a character who probably appeared in less than a dozen panels and gave her amazing fitting fxs. That is excellent.
Ha, what cool FX! I love the Blackbird one. :D
New preview, Cecilia Reyes in action:

First she expands her forcefield to push away the thugs, then she shapes it into a spiky forcefield and the last one is a passive defense.

Indeed. FX seems to be a forgotten art these days. And I'm still looking for someone to revamp optic blasts for Cyclops. ;)

Once again, I bow to the Jedi Master of FX. :thumbup:

I had actually started to attempt that one, but all my attempts ended up failing, then all my time got swallowed by RL and I haven't been able to get back to it. I was hoping someone else would step in for you.
That's really cool. I like the spiked one.
Your FX are really nice, Windblown.
Windblown you are to fx what Steven Spielberg is to modern cinema :thumbup:
Thanks guys!

I have a beam for focused, long range attacks, but I was looking for a short range, wide angle optic burst. Basically a cone shaped attack. And a general optic blast, wider than the focused beam, yet not as wide as the optic burst, for medium range, medium strength attacks
Have the fx of Pixie been released yet?
I downloaded Pixie but I did not find the fx inside the mesh folder.

I don't always get the FX from Windblown.
WB if you send me them I will reupload them with Pixie.
I think that the fx pack was released with the first version of the skope, but we forgot to add it when we updated it to the current one. I'll send it to Pod during this week so he can reupload it.

Yeah that sounds right! I just checked and I have the Pixie fx pack in my files right now. If you haven't updated it at all I can just release this one. Let me know.
Yep, I didn't update it, so you can release that one. Thanks Pod!
I hope you release it, then, Podmark. Thank you!! :)
Pixie has been re-uploaded with FX!
WB and LP, the skope it top notch as always. I have already cooked a hero file for Reyes if anyone iss interested, i just have a couple of questions for WB. In your preview video for her FX did you use fast or normal swiftness for her cone ability? Also that specific FX can only be used from a short range and with extreme/wide angle?
It's been almost 5 years since my last fx, but yesterday I was toying with Nifskope again and I thought of doing a different fx for Polaris to give her more versatility in game. My herofiles for her was mainly electric attacks and forcefields, so I thought of adding some metal bender action and this is what I've got:
https://i.imgur.com/Ql3Cj8F.mp4
Now, she uses her magnetic powers to bring a metal beam from the distance upon her enemies.
That's really awesome! :thumbup:
Some poor building is being pulled apart so she can beat up some thugs!
Nice! That looks quite good!
oh god that's a fantastic magnetic fx !!! :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:
Those are fantastic WB. It's really smooth for such a big object. Has it been released anywhere?
