bat signal

[bearded]

what would be the best way to make the bat signal?  do you think a yellow beam core with a circle/bat end would work, or would that just look like another weapon?

bat signal?
like summoning bats or something?
i'd go for yellow core

just so you know Raijin: the bat signal is like a large yellow spotlight thing that appears on the clouds/on the side of walls of gotham when Batman is around. I have a feeling it can also be used to call the famous night-crime fighter.

yes, that's what i mean.  how to make it appear in ff?

Hmm.. it might look nice if you used one of Tommyboy's sky spheres, and skinned it to look like Gotham City at night, complete with the Bat Signal coming from the police station.

If you want a rooftop scene with the Commissioner and the signal beaming up off-screen, there were some spotlights on one of the FF maps somewhere weren't there?  Those could be skinned with a bat-emblem pretty easily...

Let me know what the textures for those lamps are, and I'd be happy to do it.

I think Rev's ideas are very good, assuming this is for a cutscene of some kind. Better than seeing a beam of light shoot out or something, but if it's for some sort of summoning power or something then that's different.

Check Gengoro's maps...There you will find Gotham City with a Bat Signal object.
