Hey all
Im working now on a new game. Im working on grenades and it seems I dont have any cool sprite effects for grenade explosions etc.
Someone of you could help me please?
Please dont say something like google yourself, its really hard to find sprites with good looking effects. I dont mean any A6 sprites I need a really great looking explosion.
Thanks in advance

Google yourself
google about "gimp fire effect" and you will find some tutorials that helps you creating a fire-sprite. also many nice smoke-effect-tutorials are available

then you should try the particle effect builder (http://www.opserver.de/coni_users/web_users/pirvu/au/demo/zips/peb.zip). this tool can help you generating the effect. you can create with this tool combined effects (fire and smoke) and build so your professional explosion.

a good explosion-effect consists of a few different effects, like 2 or 3 types of firesprites (for the hot core and the colder flames outside) and smoke. also the particle-flags are important (especially bright and overlay).
the best way to find the effect that fit to your needs is to play with PEB around
