Bridge Deflector Shields Holding image - Star Wars: Interregnum mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion
Star Wars: Interregnum is an upcoming mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion that builds off of the highly successful Enhanced 4X Mod. Fleeing the unknown terror that is chasing the Vasari, the factions of Sins of a Solar Empire stumble on a temporary wormhole that takes them to a galaxy far, far away. The sudden arrival of armadas with trillions of refugees and thousands of warships between the events of Episodes 5 & 6 forever alters the Star Wars universe and plunges the galaxy into an unprecedented period of chaos and violence. Begun, a new conflict has.
A quick update on the shield effects shown in the latest developer journal. I managed to tweak the effect so that it now only spreads a short distance from the point of impact. It should be hard to make out the "bubble" even on larger ships unless they are taking a wall of fire.
Also I forgot a quick example of how this effect looks like on some larger units. These shield outlines have actually been in the mod for a while, they were just told not to render.
Is it possible to make it spread more or less accordingly to the power of the received projectile ? For example the shield would spread more for a missile shot by a Titan than from a little corvette, because it has more firepower ^^
Probably not, though if it was possible it would also cause a bigger performance hit than just having the regular shields.
If it is, I don't know how to do it. :p As far as I can tell, the shield shader doesn't get told how much damage was done.
Yeah and if it was it would probably take too much coding time for something which is not really important haha :c
It looks fantastic! an amazing compromise between the performance solution and the shield effects :D
I love the belator....but I wish the model you had in the game wasn't so low res in textures. Is it just a temporary thing right now? or is something wrong with my system?
There are plans for a better looking one. Just not a priority right now since we're focusing on the New Republic.
But muh sexy fast dreadnought of pointyness.
Pew pew pew!
