Crystalline System Infestation
I've been attempting to make a crystalline version of the organic infestation system, to little success. You can see the poor results of simply recoloring the organic infestation frames:

So... anyone feel up to making some fancy new frames for crystalline infestations? For reference, the file needs to consist of 16 128x128 sized frames, like this:

Edit:
I've uploaded a screenshot sans flowers.

Re: Crystalline System Infestation
I don't think that's such a bad infestation (ignoring the flowers of course )
Why do you need 16 frames, anyway? I don't quite get how they're organized on the map...

Re: Crystalline System Infestation
Looks ok. Still, could use improvement.

Re: Crystalline System Infestation
16 frames gives a good amount of random variation.

Re: Crystalline System Infestation
What would you say to 3D infestations, along the lines of the Von Neumann machine systems we discussed on IRC?
For reference for anyone who wasn't there, I experimented with giving storms actual 3D models, and happened to use the space port facility model with no texture... it looked pretty nifty actually, almost like the Borg home system or something...

Heh, I just realized that the galaxy I would up with in my test game looks an awful lot like puppy lifting its leg to pee... might that be the Canis Minor Urinensis constellation?
