Hi,

I'm looking for a Large Accumulator. Maybe a 4x4, with some charge and discharge animations.

Will be used in mt Bio Industries mod.

Thanks

I will try and make up a model. I've never done more than a rotation animation, but, who knows, this how you learn! If not, at the very least I CAN get you a model. 4x4 tiles? Do you know the dimensions of a tile? If not just give me an X and Y resolution to work with. For now I'll make up a model and we can go from there on what you like and don't like, might take me a bit though.

Edit: I can adjust scale, resoultion, style, anything you want. This is just the early steps to give you a taste.

Thanks LethargicChii!
Looking good.

So I looked as some of the base game graphics. Looks like a 4x4 would be 150 x 150 pix low res and 300 x 300 high.
This is the current game low res accumulator. You could just double the image dimensions for low rez and 4x for high.

Phew, sorry that took so long, a lot of little parts and the wires took awhile too.

Edit: I'll see what I can do about animating it. Also I can upload the .blend file if anyone here is good at animating.

Well this is the best I could come up with. I'll need more time and understanding if you want realistic discharge, and not this halo effect I used.

Edit: This is the tutorial I followed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FYZrw8cci0 which was for an older version of blender, so I had to hunt down some of the settings he used.

You are very welcome, I'm glad you like it. I only started heavily using blender over the last week, and I really enjoy it, so the pleasure is mine. Enjoy.
