Pain2K4

It lives. Here's the new railgun. The projectile isn't instant, but it's pretty darn fast. It also doesn't pierce all walls. I'm still thinking about what to do with the scope.

Nice I've been waiting for a good railgun for 2k4.
Does it have the blue spiril trail like the prototype version for 2k3. I like that one better.
And for the scope, it would look cool if you could see the other players skeletons in a green xray glow. Like the Erazer movie.

You can see the trail in the pic. It has a blue spiral, but it's not like the 2K3 prototype.

As for the scope, I don't think I can do skeletons. I was thinking about having a green screen and having people show up in white. That's kinda like in Eraser.

Also, would gibbing, severing, or just killing be best?

Severing would be cool. Just taking of there weapon arm would be good to see. Although my memories of the Shadow Warrior game the person just gibed with that rail gun. Shadow Warrior also had that tight coil trail effect.

Severing, How about that blue view effect from the earlier Pain?

Here's how it looks with green. I'll try it in blue and post pics in a while. I'm still thinking about which colors to use for different players (enemies, team mates, people with ball/flag).

From left to right: team mate, team mate with the enemy flag, enemy, enemy trying to escape with my flag.

I really like.

I went and made it hit instantly and pierce all walls. I think it has a nicer feel that way. It lags now in railgun arena when you have a bunch of bots all firing slugs all over the place, but it should be fine under normal conditions. Anyway, now I can snipe the enemy in their base from inside my base on Face 3, so I'll be reducing the range that the scope will detect people. The scope border's in there, but I don't know what I'm gonna do for the crosshair. Almost ready to let you people have a go with it.

This looks pretty damn cool.

Got a good start on a very important weapon that Pain2K3 sorely lacked.

It looks like your pissing fire and trying to scorch your name into the grass.
Call the weapon: HotChilli-PeePee.
I wonder what the enima version looks like?

Whee, screenshots. No explanations for you, though. ;b
