As mentioned in another topic, I've made a change to BallisticProjectile.class which calls new methods in Explosions.class to generate water splashes or dust clouds on impact with the surface. I've added to existing effects or made new effects taking advantage of this. Many explosions now have accompanying ballistically thrown particles, often as firey/smoking bits, and if still existent at impact, make a splash or dust cloud.

Here a P-47's 1000lb bomb destroys a rail bridge. The instantaneous high velocity shrapnel splash (introduced already in my previous effects pack release) is followed by the raining bridge pieces making splashes as they hit the river.

Marvelous work, Glenn!

So much to look forward to.
Many thanks.

Now can you do that for everything?

Now can you do that for everything?   

As I mentioned, I altered BallisticProjectile class so as to point to new methods I put in Explosions.class with the express purpose of adding impact splash/dust for all such particles. And I've created numerous brand new effects which utilize ballistic particles, and so in a way your request is already granted.

I suppose that in a manner of speaking somethong of an evolution has been obtained in effects, because a LOT of new code is involved. This is far beyond a mere face-lift, prettying up existing effects. For instance, Explosions.class has grown from some 2,000 lines to more than 5,000, in which many new methods have been created and a number of existing methods expanded upon.
