Some Small requests

[NERDnotGEEK]

For my new game (almost finished )

first
I need someone to make this box explode, like a breaky kinda explode, no fire so the box breaks a bits fly everywhere.

Secondly
Blood splatter on the screen, about 250 by 250. this is for when you shoot the enemy it appears on the screen. I would prefer if it is an animation of it splatting on the screen. if not just the final splatter would be good.

EXTRA CREDIT
I don't know if anyone can do this for me but i shall ask, when you make the box can you make one blank of wood rotate wildly and head towards the screen and like fly through it. like something you'd see in a 3d film, but without the 3d glasses if you can do this I would be forever in your debt

Credit and a point obviously will be given huge name in the credits

Here's blood splatting (sorta). It's backwards, and doesn't look great since it just grows. Maybe just use the first frame if it doesn't look good to you

Awww, over 100 kb. Sorry, in a zip!

[NERDnotGEEK]

I really like it apart from one thing, its like its been encased in a box, blood doesn't splatter in a box shape, can you make it splatter in a random shape?

[jimmynewguy]

Sorry, didn't really think that through. It's just a splatter brush I use in photoshop made to look like blood instead of paint. I made a couple of different random shapes just in case this time.

I could make that box shatter in a 3D rendering program I have. It would just be a bunch of triangles though.

This only took me about 30 minutes. Perhaps would you like something along the lines of this?

You could also cut out one of the particles and make a separate particle animation.
I know this doesn't look very natural. Just tell me if I'm headed in the right direction.

Blood is great now thanks shall be using that

the box I love as well is there any chance you could have a few bits fly and bounce of the inside of the screen?

[Jagmaster]

Glad you liked it.
Making the particles probably won't be too hard either. I can help you if you want, but it won't be too hard. Basically just taking a part, and scaling and rotating it at separate intervals. Then what you'd have to do is make it gradually increase zdepth. I can also make the box break apart more realistically if you want, but if you're happy with that one, that's fine too.

[NERDnotGEEK]

More realism can never hurt if your happy to spend more time on the box I wouldn't complain
Cheers +1

[Jagmaster]

Alrighty, I'll get to work on that and post as soon as I can!

[NERDnotGEEK]

Thank you

[Jagmaster]

Well, here's what I have so far. I have all the parts flying at you in a single burst. I wasn't sure how you would like to make the particles go off the screen, so I quit at a spot where you could make the parts slide off the screen using yvelocity. Perhaps I didn't make the particles spin as much as you'd like, I you want more rotation, I'll make another animation for you.

Tell me what you think, as you may be happy with it as-is.

Frames.zip

Includes "source" for the particles as well as a 10 frame animation.

Very good it looks perfect even without adding in extra particles flying off the screen <3

[Jagmaster]

Thank you. Anything else you need?

[NERDnotGEEK]

There is always artwork I need I always seem to have 2 or 3 games on the go at once, so I always have plenty to do

well another simple thing you could do for me if you wouldn't mind is add jetpack flames and muzzle flash to this guy for me
so basically he needs a flying animation, using a jet pack

and a muzzle flash that isn't attached to him, that will be placed there by code.

he only ever walks right by the way.
ill send you the game if you like? you can look at it and see if there's any artwork you can improve or add to give it a better feel?
