I'm looking for an extremely large explosion special effect for when one of my zeppelins die, it creates this effect and then you find coins on the ground as remains (Done as a cinematic)

and by massive, I mean MASSIVE Like a Nuclear Launch from StarCraft.

I've seen this effect in 2 maps, exact same, but the problem is I can't find this effect (and they're both protected, so I can't see them)

Anyone know a special effect like this?

+rep for trying :rolleyes:

Thanks.

you could make a motar team missle as a unit, and set up the scaling
then kill it

The Spawned Effects>NeutralBuildingExplosion and Buff>Doom (Minion) effects seem to have large explosion animation. The rest is as Insane suggested, change the model of a unit. Remove the shadow and give it locust. The event would when your unit dies, create this dummy unit with this effect animation at triggering unit position. Give it maybe 2 second expiration timer. Create sound effect (war stomp sound effect seems nice) on the last created unit (the dummy). Then the effect should be there. :)

Wheeeeeeeer.... Nuclear Launch Detected :D

My 1st suggestion would only if death models can be scaled, i think they can.
Use the human building explosion
Code:
Objects\Spawnmodels\Human\HCancelDeath\HCancelDeath.mdl
or if the Zeppelin is kinda small, make a GIANT (not classification just a description) dummy unit that is invisible and set its Art-Special to that and then use Another dummy unit w/ an artillery attack to atk the 1st dummy unit. And it will go BOOM.

Second suggestion is to find a Custom Explosion from the HIVE.
www.hiveworkshop.com there's a link to it on the left <<<<.

Suggested Models:
Objects\Spawnmodels\Human\HCancelDeath\HCancelDeath.mdl
Abilities\Weapons\Mortar\MortarMissile.mdl
Abilities\Weapons\GyroCopter\GyroCopterMissile.mdl
Abilities\Weapons\BoatMissile\BoatMissile.mdl

You might want to take a look at my only, old, and mostly pointless map, Starcraft Blood.

There is a nuclear explosion in it... Yes, I did import it back then :p At least making that map somewhat useful to anyone feels great if you ever find what you need in it ;)

Good luck!
