Bubble Shockwave

OK, for my entry into the cineatic competition, I need an ability that shoots a bubble straight forward. So what I did was I took Crushing Wave and changed the missile art to that of the Mana Shield buff. Problem is, the missile seems to be traveling under the ground; all that I can see of the model when it's moving is the top. How can I make it go above ground, but still retain the way it does damage (damages anything it hits as it travels)?

umm.. only way i can think of right now is take a modler and just raise it up... or you could try to turn it into some kind of buff, and make it shoot from something other than origin... both seem... lol dificult enough but there the only wayi can think of right now, im still mild newb lol

No, then it would come out of the ground and go back in.

It's based on Crushing Wave, and all I did was replace the missile art with Mana Shield. You can always throw it together and test it, you know :p

My advice would be to try basing it off of some other abilities. Also, is it unit- or point-targeted?

Here a few that I can think of off the top of my head:

Shockwave
Carrion Swarm
Breath of Fire

I'll try to look into it further tomorrow when I have WE.

base ability= storm bolt

missle speed= 2000

missle art= frost armor (unit) it looks more like a bubble

just change your missle art to frost armor (unit) problem solved, your probelm was, your missle wasnt undeground, it wasnt thier, mana shiedl doesnt have a missle, just a effect, frost armor, how ever will work for you

P.S. sorry for double post

No, it was there. I could see the top of it, but not all of it.

I used the buff art for Mana Shield as a missile. It showed up, but was partly underground for some reason.

Wait, never mind, it works. I had been using a different model for the art, but forgot that I wasn't using Mana Shield.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
