FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Would anyone be interested in creating a texture each for minor and major spikes? I keep fiddling with it and am unhappy with anything I come up with.

Currently the image for one of the spikes is this:



with transparent color for the outer area using the drawtype "plantlike" to achieve the effect.

I have the following:



and the actual png is in the texture folder of BobBlocks.

I would like to have a visual difference between the two (I was thinking a slight hint of blood perhaps on the major spike). I can re-use the same image for the inventory if needed.

Thanks,
Bob

I'll make my own just because:D I'll post it when I'm done.

Your current spikes are nice, however their base color should be gray, not white. Maybe add some "shiny" effect to it, too.

I made stalagmites awhile back for my minetoons pack, but that's more of a natural element. So it's not what you're looking for I assume.

Heres some textures that you might like:D these need some editing but just an idea of what i was thinking for this.

Metal barb pit

Those don't have transparncy - you'll have to edit them so they have transparency, then save them as .png.

i used Mspaint for this many times and it turns transparency to black.

Excellent, thanks all around. I'll try those later tonight and see what happens. Editing for transparency isn't an issue for me.

Thanks for the files guys!

Jordach - yours felt very much like mine
Gambit - I love your work and I use your Minetoon texture pack on my server. The stalagmite you posted a while back had some spark for me doing this.
Death - I didn't think I'd like it by looking at the PNG, but once it was rendered, I think the Minor one is spot on. Can you do the following in 64x64: 1) one like the one you did above, just have the height of a couple reach all the way up (major) and 2) one that is slightly not as tall and has only three spikes (minor)?

ya for sure:D ill do them now.. ya i did say they could use some editing. but i think your right the metal barbs could use a serious revision. really like how the wood spikes turned out looks awesome^_^

here i did what you asked:D wood major an minor spikes.

Minor

I've been publishing 16x16, 32x32, and 64x64 packages with each update lately.

Personally I think these are very much like metal :)



Pit configuration

Realized this morning I need to code it to do damage on mobs at some point too.

Thanks Death, I'll run with these. I may just take these and add a hint of brown to show for wood and be good to go.

BTW, give me your license terms so we're legit.

And we now fear you Bob.

I'd assume WTFPL, but wanted to make sure. Overkill maybe, but just trying to keep it legit ;-)
