This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
I added a shadow to the deathclone, so the lighting doesn't suddenly look weird when the ship dies. I also added the mon calamari shield effect to all ships that have the power to shield ability, here you can see the Quasar with it activated.
How would one go about adding this effect (or similar ones, such as the TIE Phantom's invisibility effect)? Is it just an additional mesh?
Nicely done, by the way.
The shield is just another mesh, set to become visible when you activate the power to shields ability, same with the stealth mesh. You can also have the shield display at all times, but that would cause the shield to be visible even when the ships shields are down, I did this in ORAW for the Arcus siege platform. For a ship that's mostly shields it's ok, otherwise it just looks weird.
A small step forward. :D
no a big step forward ;)
any steps forward are good steps regardless of size
