Lemma Soft Forums

This morning I remade a 1080p version of circlewipe transition for a friend and it reminded me of old times, around ten years ago when I was making video transitions (we called them wipes).
I had fun the whole day and some of them came out pretty decent so I like to share them with everyone. just put the wipes folder from the attached zip file inside your game folder and use this names for the transitions:

circlewipe, ccirclewipe, bites, bowtie, cmet, cwside, cwtop, dots, edges, flips, fur , goslow, letter, maze, radio, snake, snake2, snakes, sunshine, glasswool, wet

and the ones I didn't find a suitable name for (tell me if you can think of any good name for them):

w1, w2, w3, w4, w5, w6, w7, w8, w9, w10, w11, w12, w13, w14, w15, w16, w17, w18, w19, w20, w21, w22, w23, w24, w25, w26, w27, w28

you might want to change some of their names if you have variables with the same name in your game.

usage example: animated samples captured on my very weak computer: http://sta.sh/2c0vpjay6v9

Questions:
Did you like any of them? which one?
What type of these transitions should I make more of?
Should I make variations for some of those transitions? which ones?
Got any suggestions for the next bunch?

next bunch
place the images inside your wipes folder and replace the wipes.rpy samples:

Hee hee, these are great fun! I don't know if I will wind up using them (I'll have to see them in situ in my game before I know if they look right) but I certainly want to. Thank you for sharing! Is there any specific license, or is it a free-for-all?

As for what to try next, what about some more weather-based ones? I bet a lot of people could use one that looked like a flurry of snow, or a rush of water, or a gathering fog/frost. (I don't know how practical that would be to make, of course!) But might be a thought if you're looking for ideas, anyway :)

for license: they are free to use in all commercial an non commercial games or videos. No repacking or reselling.

snow is a great idea, I can imagine the rush of water as well but I think I need to watch some fog to come up with a way to simulate the effect.
thanks for the ideas ^_^

I challenged myself to make a "theater curtains" effect and I'm losing the bet right now, wish me luck...

I finally got the time to finish the curtains. unzip the files to your wipes folder (from before) and replace the wipes.rpy a very bad preview capture: http://sta.sh/016to8ywml1m
next, snow ^_^

These're really nice.

next bunch
place the images inside your wipes folder and replace the wipes.rpy (you need all of previous images plus the latest wipes.rpy file from the zip file to be able to use them all)
this bunch has two kinds of rain, one bad snow flake attempt and four unnamed wipes. one of the rains: http://sta.sh/01qzwehq8zbc

These are really neat! If it's alright, I'm gonna use w4 or w24 (or maybe both and just change which transition is used based on the tone of the scene) for A Foretold Affair.

As for suggestions maybe something with a puzzle piece kind of vibe or more wipes that go from the bottom up?

Sure ^_^
puzzle is a great idea, I'll work on it on my next patch of free time.

before anything I must apologize for the long delay, I can blame it on my load of work and my hard drive that stooped working but the truth is I forgot... I always try my best to keep my promises but this one slipped my mind, sorry
however as promised here is the puzzle wipe:copy and replace the two files into your wipe folder from before and use "with puzz' to use the new puzzle, I'll try to make better puzzles wipes I have in mind as soon as possible.

Thank you so much for these! I'm testing them out in my game and if I end up using some I'll be sure to credit you!

feel free to ask for any specific transition you might've need ^_^

Do you have a glass shatter transition?
Like it cracks in the center then disintegrates.

I might be able to make something resembling crackings in the glass but the disintegration part requires the individual pieces to move, that can't be done with dissolves, in dissolve transitions, the images pixels get removed according to how bright the co responding pixel is in the dissolve image. I'll try few things and bring back the result.

Here's my attempt: one glass shatter, well the cracking part to be more precise.

and one shot by bullet:

the animations are smoother that what you can see in these videos, my computer isn't that powerful to capture a smooth video while the game is running.

check the attachment, add the images to your wipes folder alongside the previous ones and update the wipes.rpy in the same folder, then try "with shatter" and or "with shot" for your transition
