Captain Red Posted August 19, 2002 Source ports can't seem to make up there mind about using the fuzz effect, or just making specters translucent. witch do you prefer? 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted August 19, 2002 Neither and both. I want the spectre to be transperent AND black/white. 0 Share this post Link to post

Naked Snake Posted August 20, 2002 I like to make them more dangerous, so in EDGE I made them stealth which means they are totally 100% invisible UNTIL they attack. I also made it so the spectres don't have any sounds other than their bite sound so I dunno if one sees me or anything....pretty fun ^_^ 0 Share this post Link to post

I've seen those before, those are usually black/cyan so no. I was thinking more of a lighter black with white highlights and I want it to be more transperent. Although the nightmare spectre is kick ass. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted August 20, 2002 I like my spectres transparent. They can scare the shit out of you, especially in dark areas. 0 Share this post Link to post

CyRaptor Posted August 20, 2002 I pick the fuzz effect because I think an almost shapeless monster with no features to speak of is a lot scarier than a translucent version of the pinky. 0 Share this post Link to post
Submerge Posted August 20, 2002 i like the way MBF does the spectre. A completely undetailed translucent mass that is non fuzzy. you can see any features on it, it's just a disturbance in the air. 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted August 20, 2002 I like JDooms fuzz effect with the red glowing eyes. the_Danarchist said:I want a fuzzy cacodemon. I dont know about that one. 0 Share this post Link to post

fraggle Posted August 20, 2002 I think the fuzz effect should be used in software mode to be true to the original, however it isnt really possible in GL modes. If its carefully balanced translucency can be used quite effectively as a replacement. 0 Share this post Link to post

I like the fuzz effect coz it reminds me of the Predator. :) I have seen some good GL effects though, sort of dark translucent spectres, witch is as close as GL mode can get. On another note, I wish there was a way to replace all spectres with Stealth demons from Zdoom. That would rock! 0 Share this post Link to post
