Maul: Shadow Lord blade style in OS7

ProffieOS Blade Styles
1

Is it possible to recreate the swing effect the red blades have in the Maul series? It’s sort of a flame swing, but coming off the edge, rather than up the blade.

2

Sure, in my library under Enhancements > Responsive Swing just add a “(Scaled Cutting Edge)” or “(Responsive Cutting Edge)” Swing Effect. These only apply the SwingEffect to the end of the blade, Scaled uses last 1/3 of blade, Responsive grows based on speed of swing. An Unstable or Fire would work best, just set the Color to match the Base.

Ah, thank you. I guess I was flicking through the preview visualiser which probably doesn’t do it justice. I’ll have to get them loaded on the board to try properly.

4

You can use the “Swing Speed/Accel” slider above the previewer to view easier. The Swing Button is a very quick Swing so it’s hard to see.

5

This is the code I generated, but a) it doesn’t seem to do anything on the swing, and b) how do I remove the scaling aspect so it’s always showing the effect at 100%?

Not entirely sure what you mean by this, swing effects usually fade in and out based on swing speed, you just want the effect to always show?

7

Yeah, exactly that. But right now, it’s not showing the effect at all no matter how fast I swing.

8

You can change this:

Scale<IsLessThan<SwingSpeed<600>,Int<13600>>,Scale<SwingSpeed<600>,Int<-19300>,Int<32768>>,Int<0>>

To

SwingSpeed<300>

I’ll take a look at why it’s not working when I get a chance.

9

I just tested with the new code and it still doesn’t show the unstable effect. I even check it with a completely different colour and it shows the swing colour, but not the animation.

I don’t think you changed the right code, then, the original library code is still there:

AlphaL<Stripes<2000,-3000,RgbArg<SWING_COLOR_ARG,Green>,RandomPerLEDFlicker<RgbArg<SWING_COLOR_ARG,Green>,Mix<Int<8192>,Black,RgbArg<SWING_COLOR_ARG,Green>>>,RandomPerLEDFlicker<Mix<Int<3932>,Black,RgbArg<SWING_COLOR_ARG,Green>>,RgbArg<SWING_COLOR_ARG,Green>>>,Scale<IsLessThan<SwingSpeed<600>,Int<13600>>,Scale<SwingSpeed<600>,Int<-19300>,Int<32768>>,Int<0>>>
11

Yeah, my latest code is the original, but with a green swing instead of red.

12

What happens when you make the change I suggested?

13

So, I had more of a play with the swing speed set to 300 and just barely noticed the unstable effect. I think the issue is that it’s not very obvious. I tried the pixelate effect and it’s a bit better.

14

You can play with lowering 300 to 200 or 100 as well.

15

How did this work out? Trying to get it for myself (on my obi wan hilt ironically)

16

I’ve not had great results. It doesn’t show the unstable style very well for some reason.

17

I still haven’t actually watched the series but I should get a little time in the next few weeks to have a look, from the short clips I’ve seen it seems like a reversed version of the Hyper-Responsive Rotoscope may be needed so the unstable swing remains after movement. In animation it’s easy to draw this effect, creating something you can see and interpret in person with 130ish pixels is altogether different, but I’ll see about building a new dedicated style in the next couple of weeks.

18

Ok. Thanks!
