Conquer Man [Quenched]

by **Herakilla** on Mon Dec 10, 2007 5:07 pm

that is so awesome! hope that this breaks the ice and allows for animations!

The only problem with animated gifs are that they only use 256 colors. With Conquer Man this is OK since I only use 16. But with other maps you will get a lot of artifacts and potentially wired edges if the image is made to look pretty and hen turned into a gif.

Unless I am wrong and then please tell me how to make them better.

Here are the final pics (again)

Agreed, probably doesn't need one at all, especially a seizure intensive one. It's both funny and painful.

What if cup cake yum went from right to left like a scrolling, err thing.

I can't say anything other than "just amazing"

Yeah, what you have for the cupcake at the moment doesn't really work. I'm glad my suggestion got included though.

The diamonds look good.

WidowMakers wanted me to relay that he's planning to drop the cupcake animation.

WidowMakers has a very busy real life so he won't get to it very soon, but maybe later tonight.

Right, fast flashing object doesn't seem like it might be a problem for someone?

Good. All the other animations are great, but that one's pretty damn annoying.

OK. I think that is it. QUENCH!

Thanks for the input everyone.

QUENCH!!

So you're going to abandon the idea of animation on the cupcake rather than coming up with something new?? Perhaps some teeth marks eating a chunk out of it would work better.

Disagree... less is more.

You could add a sparkle onto the cherry... I think the little cake needs something - especially as it is the best bonus!

the animation makes this map!

*feels like an idiot*
what do you mean by the terr bonuses?

Normally you get +1 for every 3 territories past 9, not on this map. After a while you start to need 4 territories for another +1 and then 5 and so on.
