History
This is an improvement to another hyperspace effect I did for Zeelich and the Star Wars: New Rebellion team. There is only one hyperspace effect in Homeworld; every ship, whether R1 or P3, jumping out or coming in, calls the same file. However, this file is given the size of the ship that is jumping, and since I know the sizes of all the ships in the mod, I'm able to find out which ship is jumping and branch to another file appropriately. When the ship jumps, it stretches forward from its engines, which glow brightly, then disappears in a flash. I play the same effect for coming back to normal space (since I don't know which way a ship is going) and it still looks alright. It's a compromise; if I picked one direction or another, I could make the effect look twice as good, but the other direction would look silly.
Instructions
Wait for the next release of Star Wars: New Rebellion.
