Updated Video Here:






Completely revamped. I have made the almighty explosion the way I want.
I have made fire !!! and I have made combustion !!! I have conquered
the explosion !!!!

Whole New Look ! Am proud of this so far.

[video=vimeo;39137716]












After some replies to my desperation on making an explosion, I had revelations, brainstorm,
whatever you want to call it, and began looking at things in a different way.

Then after some careful thought, I put together an emitter arrangement of lights and smoke
that turned out really well. ( I think) I have only done a few , but am so excited to build a ____load
of these explosions all across the known universe....... LOL

I still have a few in my head that I may never be able to do. But I am happy with these and the ones
I am about to make. Also, taking more time, with looking at the scene, constantly asking how to improve it.

I also actually, really, seriously, began to look at actual video clips of NuBSG, and I ended actually,
similarly, recreated a few looks.



I will Continue to add updates to this thread.

Hope you like, Regards,

Randal R.

    Loved the unused new clips at the end! I definitely wonder why more sci-fi ships didn't have AA/point defense batteries like Galactica had...

    (Update)

    I have completely
    changed the look and the scene mostly. Also, I have redone all weapons.
    (Viper stills needs re-done)

    This in my opinion is the best stuff to date. Though it is not perfect.
    Although I spend a great deal of time on it, checking, rechecking, test rendering, things always seem to show up and often you do not see them until after many views.


    I have tried a few things in trying to create a fiery flash. From an image/texture
    on a poly to a cone with material ( ostensibly to light up as the light of weapon
    passes) to just using lights.

    Next up in line is the Viper/Raider clash, then Raider strafes of Atlantia.

    Also been thinking of trying to bring in two more base ships to finish off
    Atlantia after the raiders feast on her.
