Looks really good but can u please make a version without any numbers on it ?
I really need a goblinish bomb-model but sadly with no numbers on it.


If u do it I will be most grateful! +REp and credits

if I were you, I would make a barrel instead, with piles of TNT next to it, and keep that ''meter'' it's an awesome idea

wow cool idea I will try that later.

Set Art Special of your custom unit to Objects\Spawnmodels\Other\NeutralBuildingExplosion\NeutralBuildingExplosion.mdl

Can't you just make the model use it as an event object? It would play automatically then and make it easier for the mapper.

Looks ok for a good Goblin trap or prank, but I agree with Mr. Goblin's idea to make it a barrel bomb, but yeah useful as well.

Yeah I tried that, but when unit dies it will use the model stated in Art-Special.
And it has event object(SPN and UBR). You just need to look.

Yeah I will do it after school and maybe add a fuse instead of the clock.

No man, keep the timer so people will know its barrel bomb with a timer so the Goblin pranksters can get away from it and blow it sky high.

 

[AIagremm]

Awesome, the numbers are a great idea =D

Though when I looked at it I expected it to have the clock thingy on the model itself to become red from white one part by one until it blows up. But this is more convinietn

 

[Licheus]

This is great! Looks like something out of Rayman - Hoodlum Havoc (If anyone has played it. Anyone? *sad face*).

I'm really looking forward to the barrel bomb as well. =)

Well in that case you wont need to set the Art Special since it already has the objects. Art special only only applies if a unit is killed by an artillery missile.

I know but when unit times out in Pocket Factory ability it uses art special. Just do as I say. I know what I am talkig about and I am not noob.

Sorry if I insulted you.

 

[Naz]

[Orcnet]

I have to agree with previous made comments, the numbers seem to be a little too high tech, however The dial seems to be ok. If you take out the numbers not only will it seem more realistic, but people can use:
[trigger=Slow Timer]Slow Timer
Actions
Animation - Change Bomb's animation speed to 50.00% of its original speed
[/trigger]
To slow down the timer
(Ex. This trigger would slow it down to 6 seconds)

If this trigger is done then the numbers would pop up every 2 seconds instead of every 1 second, making it look odd, so you should get rid of the numbers.

I feel that this model should also have a death animation and custom explosion instead of just dissappearing. I do admit however, that doing this limits the usage of this model for some people.

An Easier way of doing the explosion however is this:
[trigger=Explosion]Explosion
Events
Unit - A unit Dies
Conditions
(Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Bomb
Actions
Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Dying unit) using (Explosion Model)[/trigger]


Overall Opinion:
-Get rid of Numbers
-1/5 (For now, because of the numbers making it useless(in my opinion))
-5/5 if numbers are deleted/killed (whatever).
- Keep it as a dial, a fuse would be predictable and boring.
- Barrel might look pretty good

3/5 +rep

Agreed....
Though i would like to see a more intense explosion! but 3/5 is what i feel it deserves. Never would have thought of the idea though! so tactually i'm gonna give it 3/5 with +REP, 4/5 if more intense BOOM.....Good for goblin spells.

huh I made numberless model for Windu. The very idea of numbers is for you to know how much time there is left. I will put numberless model in a paste bin so you can download it at will. Also I will make a bigger boom.

Champara Bros, you can make sv-001

?

Great
