Forum :: Artists :: waves

was wondering what people thought about waves on a eo map?
and what is your thoughts on the water color?

edit. after colby posted a animated gif. figured i would post one to show the waves better.

Lol, nice. However you should work a little more on them in my opinion.

Try making them zigzaggy or curved.. Somehow.. Idk :D

You should make more than one tile for the wave. Like 1 tile for the wave and 1 to carry the wave from the next tile. That way your waves seem more spaced out. If necessary you might need to use 3, but I don't know how many tiles the client animates. :s Great idea though. ^^

thank you.

it runs threw 4 frames and ends with the wall. and repeats. it needs work . but second ever attemt at waves, so still playng around with it a bit. and the wave does carry threw to the next tile, its spaced equal

edit, but maybe if i only animate the 1st and 3rd of the tile it wil space it out a litlle and slow it down a too.

Yea I meant it doesn't show the wave on the second tile till the first one is done and then the third one shows when the second has reached the end. That way its more spaced out.

I think this is a great idea, but I do not like how it keeps repeating itself over every tile. But that looks like the only way you could do this, but I love this idea. Keep up thinking of good ideas. I liked your horse idea and I like your client idea, also I love this idea.

They're cool but they seem too unnatural, and straight for all of them, some could be at different heights, lengths ect. Otherwise maybe they're too close. Their is something off that catches the eye, not too sure what it is :P. Nonetheless great idea, keep at it!

@Ryouken thank you. i did not think about spreading the 4 frame animation over 4 tiles. that would spread them out.

@colby yes they seem like there a little much. but they realy dont look to bad going over and over. i think i will have to try the npc idea and wall tiles to get a better more random wave effect.

@ Mitch yes the waves are pretty straight and unreal. i was more focused on getting the animation to move right. then will edit and and blend and change the way the waves connect together.

thank for all the feedback.  

 

edit i have problems with quoteng and then adding my own text half the time and gets all messed up WTH.
