Plan for Josh "The_Force" Moore
by Josh Moore · 07/20/2004 (5:08 pm) · 7 comments
My current project, Iluumina, calls for super weapons. These range from vehicle drops to long range missiles. We have alot planned; 2-3 weapons per class(weak, medium, and heavy weapon classes). I've made 2 Super Weapons so far(Devastator Bomb and Quad Missile Strike), both medium class attacks.
The Devastator is a cluster bomb with 3 stages. In the first stage the main bomb bursts into 4 smalled bombs. Those bobms then explode app. 80 units above any target within range, relesing 2 small rockets. These rocket seek out nearby targets and attack them.
Heres some screens. Thses shots show the early version of the Devastator, the movie has the new version.
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
The Missile Strike launches 4 long range missiles at 4 seperate target locations. Each of these missiles pack some serious power and can turn the tide of battle if directed at important targets.
I made a small 3.7mb vidoes with showing off both of these super weapons, check it out.

Very cool. Do those missiles lock(like on vehicles or something)? It looks like they do at the end of the movie.

Yes they do. Currently they lock onto vehicles but can easily be adapted to lock on people as well.

Very cool indeed! I think they need bigger explosions, especially the big rockets at the start!

Thanks for all the good comments. All of the explosions are from other weapons, so I'll be making some cool original ones soon.
