yesss that would be epic

I think that it would look a little off considering it's merely a silhouette of a sleigh, a 2D sprite wouldn't look so good if it circulated the moon and making it 3D would be a hell of a hussle.

The creators told me ,via the tf2 amino, that it won't register it going around the moon.

plz

That would be great but its still a great effect

yes

unusual effects are just an animated picture, it not 3D
if you could make it 3D somehow that would be awesome

Shadowing is right, if the sleigh went around the moon it would clearly look like paper, that's if the sprite could even bend for that matter. Picture Circling TF logo but replaced with the sleigh.

Could you not do a thin textured curve rather than a spright like Orbiting Planets unless thats done with sprites too. Or animate the sprite to look like its going round the moon, or faling that, rotationg in and out of fraim and the transition hidden by the clouds so it's always moving fowared.

the deal is santa isnt delivering on the moon, and animating the sprite in 360 dgrees would be a pain in the @$$ especially at 256x256 pixels

Some ppl, aka "Good Hearted Goodies" render out 3d models into 2d sprites to make a 3d looking effect, in this case i drew out the sprites and didn't do any rendering. Modeling out santa, a sleigh, and reindeer all for it to be a 2d silhouette may not have been worth the trouble. I think ppl are liking it how it is. If only i had more free time I could have... possibly

Fair enogh! never didn;t know much about the limitations of unusal effects, so was very cool to get feedback and more information!
