The Spell Weaver - Particle Animations

Oh. I wasn't talking about you Mascarpone. That's why I said *looks around.* I would have typed your name if I was insinuating that you never reveal what program you use. I apologize if it came out that way.

@Zekallinos: It must be inconvienient to have to deal with the size. My project's over 150 mb and I havent even nearly finished doing all of the maps, events etc.

It makes me wonder: How much time does it take to make an animation? Usually when making music it takes way more than an hour for me.
 
These? Not too long. I use alot of stuff that is availble to me, then modify/animate them, so it can't really take that long but depending on the animation...well, ask Mascarpone, he made more fully-custom stuff.
 
wow!
seriously, i came in to this thread thinking that it must be a guy starting to do this following in Mascarpone's footsteps..
But, as far as these go i'm having a hard time deciding who's is actually better..
Great Job on these!

although Mascarpone has more of a variety right now, and like you said more fully-custom stuff.
Keep at it.

I think that making an animation like this need 2 parts:
First one, the really fun one: creating the animation on PI
Second one, the awfull one: puting all images of animation into a template...
I take someting like 10-30mn for creating a rather "good" animation like this one
You have to clik on the image, I dont know why it does not want to animate the gif here...http://ns1.hostingpics.net/thumbs/846598runecelestes.gif[/img]
(yes, im using a 3/4 view battle system^^)
And something near 1mn for assembling 5 images i the template
 
It does looks nice, good use of emitters, although it's just that it will be a twice as big file. For a few animations, it's not a problem, but when you have a full arsenal of spells you can't allow yourself to do that (if you intend to release your game, that is).

***I'm not taking request. Don't have enough time.

I did those before school started - Now that it does, and it's burnt to the ground (yesyes), I have the weirdest schedule on earth.

Fourth : What Bahamut mega flare? Don't assume anything.

Fifth : Dark Cloud Like Particle Beam = ?

Sixth : This is 2D, not 3D. Assuming I find a convinient dragon image, due to the sideview battle system (assuming it is front view) only a few angles could look good (and I'd likely need many pics for movements - not possible). I don't have any pictures in my head.

Seventh : Dun = Don't?

Thanks for understanding ^^
