Hey Sky, since you're the main effect man for Battlefront Zero, i had some requests..

1. Durge's Effect

You've looked into it before, it is almost perfect, only the effect should be a bit up (so higher) With a bit i mean the effect twice..

2. Grappledroid

What i would love, is a thunderous effect for his claws.. I use the common ones for smolder_bone now but they suck. I would rather have them be a bit less-sparking, so not that many lightning, and the radius of the effect a bit smaller..

I hope you can do this for us, you're the best effect maker man ;)

Sorry about taking so long folks, for some reason installing convo pack stuffed up PE. Uninstalling it fixed the problem, so now I'm back to making effects. MandeRek, I'll PM you the new durge effect shortly.

You know, I've a request. Have you tried Old Trilogy blaster efx yet? The orange-ish red, whiteless core, with somewhat of a flattened oval effect? Dunno how else to describe that. I just haven't seen an attempt for SWBF2... or I might've been typing in the wrong thing in search or looking in the wrong threads. Oh well.

Other than that, a blue-pulse ball effect with some type of bluish trail behind it would be nice for an Assault Cannon. I've always wanted to see that effect in SWBF2 coming from the Dark Trooper Phase-II. All's it has to be is a blue orb-thing, maybe with some cool fluctuation, followed by a very small blue trail. A blue glow around it would be nice as well. ^_^

If not that, then maybe trying out making SWCW style blaster bolts (I mean the series before the new 3d (and the movie which already came out) series coming October 4th. I was always wondering how it'd look in SWBF2.) If you want, I can supply pictures.

You don't have to do it. It's just out there if you want -- that is, if you are still taking requests. :P

I actually thnk a very useful one would be some sort of loss-of-life effect. They get hit by a one-hit kill gun, and the gun's contact effect would be a small blueish explosion, and a ghost-like thing shooting out of the back of the body.

Could you make a good elctriccity effect? Fairly large, but not to engulf an entire unit.

@RevanSithLord: Send me some pics and I'll consider it.
@Grev: Need more information.
@Fluffy: maybe, but be aware the blue thing won't shoot out of his back - it'll shoot out the opposite side to where he gets hit.

I hope you appreciate the references I sent you. If it's already been done, sorry. But hey, at least you can show your interpretation of something that's already been done. Have your own brand. I really do love the effects that you make. :D

Hey Sky, do you think you could please make a movielike Sonic Blaster (Blunderbuss) projectile? For a description (It's based off of what you see in Episode 2)

Shape: Sphere
Size:Diameter of about 1 Meter (Maybe a little smaller, whatever looks better)
Color: Transperant Greenish-Yellow (The same color as the current sonic Blast effect)
Texture: Bubbly kind of....

Could you also make one of the same type for the LR1K sonic cannon, so it's pretty much the same thing, only alot bigger :P ...

Do you think you you could make them? Thanks :D

Sounds like a good idea Elmo. I'm going to second that.
