Sometimes leaves floating blue swirly bits on the map after the animation runs.

All right, this mod still workable on LWOTC.

@Bernard Lowe
According to that mod's author, it should already.

Possible to get this working with the WOTC port of the Advent Drone ?
tiktaalik 10 Jan, 2019 @ 7:24pm 
Beautiful! LW2 here.

How come there isn't a WOTC version of this?
Snoup Sniddly 2 Oct, 2018 @ 1:58pm 
Is there a way I could have the version shown in the video above? I likes it moar

@ Xepthrichros & minibotas [ESP] - holy shit, I gotta respond even though it's a year-old comment: what's with all these lonely fuckers who need everything to be animuuu

I wish more modded aliens included this - it adds so much character to the creature :)

i found something in xcom game expansion thing files. can i add you on steam. its important.
Grimjack Hex 24 Aug, 2017 @ 1:36pm 
I didnt say it right. The animation makes me think the side of the drone is the front of the drone.

That's intentional, you never shoot cinematics from straight in front of something, you lose all perspective
Grimjack Hex 11 Aug, 2017 @ 4:12am 
I dunno if anyone else has mentioned it but, it looks like the view angle is to the left or right side. not the front of the drone.
Cornelian 7 Jun, 2017 @ 1:31pm 
Sweet!
Vortex ♀ Pixalation 25 May, 2017 @ 5:29pm 
well my concern is, well it is a robot, why would it panic, second it seems pointless
Matlock 25 May, 2017 @ 5:04pm 
These suggestions about robots acting panicked in a cute fashion...How is animating that worth anyone's time?
Vortex ♀ Pixalation 15 May, 2017 @ 8:01am 

Is a mod that makes reveal anims play without the camera on, like from the normal tactical perspective possible

Something that might add flavour for these; some kind of alarm sound from the drone, or bursts of intercepted radio chatter similar to the EXALT voiceovers in EW.
Vortex ♀ Pixalation 10 May, 2017 @ 3:29pm 
it is a robot ...

+1 minibotas and Χepthrichros
Minibotas 19 Apr, 2017 @ 10:20am 
hm... I don't see it satisfying enough... maybe make them act surprised?
is your mod so... do it if you want to...
xepth 7 Apr, 2017 @ 12:18am 
An animation suggestion: Do one where the drone acts suprised, or panicked, in a cute fashion, that makes you almost feel sorry to kill it.
Vint 21 Mar, 2017 @ 2:41am 
Awesome mod! I use the LW Alien Pack and always thought the drones looked odd without a reveal animation, so thanks for this!
Boisegangpc 2 Mar, 2017 @ 12:31pm 
PSA: ABA 2 has integrated this, according to DerBK.
Spotter 2 Mar, 2017 @ 11:40am 
Very much cool! But I don't need another game pausing animation.
Tapir 2 Mar, 2017 @ 3:38am 
I forgot: cool mod, nice work ^^
Tapir 2 Mar, 2017 @ 3:35am 
I think the third animation (on link) would be better with only one burst, machines don't "show off" :P
Insufferable Smartypants 1 Mar, 2017 @ 11:19pm 
These animations are pretty slick. They look like they belong there in the base game. Nicely done.
Jackomg 1 Mar, 2017 @ 4:06pm 
Such a simple and awesome MOD. Thanks man, this is beautiful!

And, yes, it should be integrated with LW2. No questions asked.
henriquejr 1 Mar, 2017 @ 10:36am 
Great mod! Nice job, thank you!
bran9742 28 Feb, 2017 @ 10:50pm 
excellent mod, thank you.

Small mod. Looks great. No flaws. Why would anyone NOT install this if they were playing Long War?
silencer4 28 Feb, 2017 @ 10:14am 
I think this should be integrated with LW2.
Five Knight 27 Feb, 2017 @ 10:04pm 
Looks good. a way a drone should taught xD
divineshadow 27 Feb, 2017 @ 5:55pm 
Great work.
teh1archon 27 Feb, 2017 @ 1:00pm 
I must say that it really improved the game experience for me. Pretty sweet for a sort-of-cosmetic-cinematic mod.
Numbers 27 Feb, 2017 @ 11:20am 
Very cool. Nice work.
Element UK 26 Feb, 2017 @ 3:12pm 
This is a beautiful mod, very nice work
Hildissent 26 Feb, 2017 @ 1:36am 
Neat. Nice work. It really adds a little something without being distracting.
Setora 25 Feb, 2017 @ 9:13pm 
Thanks!
Shades 25 Feb, 2017 @ 6:37pm 
That picture confused me to no end.
For a long time I thought it was a wheeled Xcom tank like in the original games.
Then I thought it was a wheeled Advent tank.
Then I was just confused.
And then I got it was just somebody photoshopping a flying thing on top of a police car.
Good one.
IllI 25 Feb, 2017 @ 6:36pm 
Nice work!
Boisegangpc 25 Feb, 2017 @ 9:21am 
Too bad there's no Drone Swarms(Pods consisting entirely of drones)- that would be cool.
Grim 25 Feb, 2017 @ 8:49am 
Very nice cosmetic mod, thumbs up!
talemore 25 Feb, 2017 @ 8:19am 
Robojumper's mods are great
Rifle Man 25 Feb, 2017 @ 6:59am 
OMG, that new animation is so aggressiveness. Awesome!
robojumper  [author] 25 Feb, 2017 @ 6:22am 
I added one more animation ( https://streamable.com/75efj ) and reduced the file size considerably (30MB->4.6MB).
BLASTER📷 25 Feb, 2017 @ 1:55am 
Great mod
