I am really trying to develop some bloodmob/bloodkin lore - do you have ideas about that?

Like Egg said you could hack some tiles. For example I tinted the snow tiles red:

0xe90043d.2
0xeb0043d.2
Downside is you cannot walk on those items.
Using some mythic tint you could probably make the items glow red, so you have a bit of animation. Well turns out that there is not much black on the tiles that would glow.

That's really cool. I like it but I'm not sure it's seaworthy X-D

Kynt that was inspirational - I love the idea with the cannons.
Here is my take on the cannons:

Well it was more by accident. The tint is black 0x26. Hence, the black tower is 0xd40643d.2

I tweaked the last cannon a bit adding another fence under the front of the cannon barrel with a ship undertile:

I think this looks better.

Cannon's looking pretty good.

I was testing pirate/ghost hybrids for undead pirate mobs, looks decent imo.
Top half is chosen randomly amongst a bunch of pirate avs and bottom half is randomly either the white or the black ghost.

Be cool if when you looked at it or mouse over it had a custom name ...

@Kynt: I kinda like those ghost pirates.
@Max: is there a way to disable glowing on named items?

Next step would be to write a small switch-script to make the cannon shoot cannon balls when you 'a'ctivate it.
Edit: the draw distance for GFX sure is a limit - you have to be within 4 tiles to see the explosion of the cannonball. Otherwise is looks and sounds good.

Code: Select all

function cc_cannon(id,x,y,z)
    map = get_map_ptr(z)
    send_event(z,-1,40,34,EVENT_MISSLE,MISSLE_BOULDER,40,32) -- GFX for cannon ball  
    send_event(z,-1,40,32,26,0) -- Explosion GFX
end

That'd be pretty good but I don't think it's possible to tint hybrid mobs.
