Wraith Squad

A squad of wraith Elites, Tanker, Ninjas, Furys and Strikers.  The Airport Assault level was modified to replace some of the existing characters with the wraith squad.

Re: Wraith Squad

Yikes.  I'm suddenly reminded of the phase cloaked ninjas.  Looks good EdT.

Re: Wraith Squad

Dude yes!  They look almost exactly like what I was imagining when I pitched my Wraith character.  Well, these actually have a bit more texture than I was envisioning, but still, same concept.  Awesome.  smile

Re: Wraith Squad

Leus: I had a version with less texture and then they were really hard to see! 

Basically, I used a single semi-transparent texture for all the parts.

I added the package link to the first post.

Re: Wraith Squad

I know these wraiths are supposed to be stealthy but i couldn't resist to try other tex. Maybe you can think of them as boss or low-on-health tex (chr_wait_health -> chr_set_class).  smile

Re: Wraith Squad

I think if u could still make one completely transparent that would be scary cool smile one will have to rely on other skills to fight them ... for example the weapons with an aiming mode will still show if u are aiming at them .... I think Leus's concept was that they should be very hard to spot and that's what I think made it a cool idea.

if textures are shown even if a little bit it won't bee that impressive anymore ...

also I liked Leus's idea of making them have low health be females and with quick moves ... if they are given mukade's combo ID and the teleport particles and trams in he trac they can also teleport around ... that would be even cooler to fight ...

an invisible teleporting-low health enemy. 

I really like the textures u put paradox ! the blue one looks like some type of electrical ghost ... maybe we can expand on that a bit ? give him some of mutant muro's electrical spikes ( with blue color if possible ?) and he \she becomes a new type of electrical enemy big_smile

Re: Wraith Squad

Samer: Its very easy to make the transparent texture, its all in the alpha channel.  If its all black then the AI is completely invisible. 
The problem is if you want a semi-transparent, then you get this effect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAFtdKC32es

Re: Wraith Squad

Here are two different versions of an 'electric aura' (don't forget to create a "level0_Particles" folder in the wraith pack). Or do you wanted the ninja to have M.Muro's attacks?

Edit: screenshots added
version 1 - mutant muro's super shild particle + ninja's super attack particle
version1.jpg
version 2 - only ninja's super attack particle (without blue lensflares)

Re: Wraith Squad

I like the second version, without the blue lens flares.  Just looks more.... ghostly.

Re: Wraith Squad

I like the blue ones best.

But.. I get that the idea is to make them hard to spot, right? If you use a bright-blue texture and glow, that's kinda negated...  hmm

Re: Wraith Squad

Satyr: True, but the blue ones show the possibilities for other special characters.  Sometimes, one idea, leads to another and another and you wind up with something really cool.

For example: The Mod Squad - wraith style  big_smile

The guy on the left is wearing an animated fire texture.

Re: Wraith Squad

Awesome.  I like the light blue one, the fire one, and the grey one that's almost invisible.

I guess someone's too young for that reference?  Or do you not like the pun? smile

Ok, don't you be calling me too young for the reference. I don't think you were alive in '73 either.

Re: Wraith Squad

Oh the animated fire texture guy sounds like he'd be cool to see in action.
