I was inspired to make an explosion sprite like the one used for Half-life AG




it didn't come out how i quite wanted it to though, I can't get it to be semi transparent since apparently Quake doesn't support that. I am using software mode though so I'm sure it's possible to achieve that effect with ezQuake and what not. So here is v.1 of the sprite. Put it in your progs folder in the qw directory. Plans for v.2 if I ever can include a larger transparent explosion, blanked light sprites, and larger more visible bubble sprites.

Can we get a ingame screenshot?

yeah here

yeah i put the tags on it but it wasn't working. Thanks. anyways, any feedback on the sprite and the idea would be greatly appreciated.

I tryed, but, i don't really like sprite-explosions, because when you get a direct hit, you lose almost all your visibility, also thats white, so feels like a flash, everytime you see a explosion =<

well I wanted it to be transparent so that wouldn't be a problem. The explosion dissipates rather fast though. I use it and i like it compared to the other options available for me. I'll look into ezQ sprite creation though and make it transparent
