Does anyone know what other spells are used early in the game? I know fire and ice, but only fire can be redone. And i dont know how to make fire
 
After fire, ice, bolt and cure, quake should be the next one...
 
As far as i can tell every texture is applied to a 3d element. Some things like quake have a basic model they are applied to. Things like bio and bolt are applied to a basic flat plane
 
3d textures need redoing too, so those can be posted, i think the meshes for 3d magic are okay as they are, if nething I could pimp em out sometime.


nehow heres a bolt wip.

What i'm tracing with. I always use colors for tracing lines that dont appear in the picture so they stand out.
 
Lightning is straighter and more jagged, try making it less smooth. Also, the actual bolt should probably be thinner, and the surrounding glow should be more of a gradient and less cel-shaded; the only reason the original seems cel-shaded is that it's too small a graphic to shade smoothly.
 
What is that, four colors? How about getting a real picture of a lighting bolt (Creative commons) and alter it with fiters?

because most such images dont have animated frames ¬¬ Nor do I feel like animating detailed images myself.
 
I think we want the bolts to at least be somewhat similar to the originals, not just use an image off the 'net
 
first bolt done... not sure how i like it.. thots?

I like it. Actually, If I were you, i wouldn't spend a whole lot of time working on making the lightning bolt look 'realistic'.  Do you all remember what casting lightning looks like? It is hard to make out the actual detail in the lightning because it comes and goes so quickly, the part of the attack that really needs work is the round sprites that appear after the lightning disappears.
 
Timu... that lightning bolt looks sick.... dont change a thing about it,, it looks so awesome
