ok, the animators for PR (forum here) , the starcraft conversion, do not have time to do all the particles for all the units and buildings so we need more people. use the art tools or mdl editing to make the particles for a zealot death animation. we really need help here, and are pushing to get this mod done as soon as possible. anyone that can do this satisfactorally will be on the team.

I think it's good but i don't know what kdub thinks. But does it work ingame? Can't we get a screeny of it ingame?

it shouldn't be too hard... Just mdl edit the visibillity thing so no geosets are visible on the death anim and then CnP your particles to it and make the visibillity so it only shows on death

They disappear in a blue smoky phase, but not like smoke. It was more like burning up in blue fire.

Why not just make an animated sprite and use that for the death sequence? I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to do, rather than particles you would just have 1 plane and have an animated texture appear and key it to animate during the death sequence.
