🎇 Firework types demonstration video series

Do you mind if I post some of my screenshots of the fireworks on this thread? I get it that videos describe these things better, but not everyone prefers to watch videos (I personally prefer pictures over videos) and images can provide a sort of ‘preview’ to weed out some you’re not interested in watching more closely. I have most of the fireworks, but I don’t want to hijack or spam your thread.

By the way, this is what Crown Imperial Firework looks like. It’s one of my favorites, actually, and I’ve used it throughout the years on multiple occasions, so it’s definitely working. Don’t know why you’re not seeing its effects.

Post away, this thread is also to embrace fireworks, not just to showcase my videos.

This also means anyone can post fireworks screenshots or even their own such videos as well.

Thanks!

Paradoxical Nebula Firework.
This does look like a nebula or a gas cloud, and is most unconventional of all the fireworks so far. Coloration is from violets to light pinks.

Yoiul Blizzard Firework.
White and bluish-tinge color palette. One of my personal favorites.

Tip: Also worth noting that firing multiple ones in sync at the same target can make the effect much more prevalent. This is true in case of several fireworks which are much less visible or less dense otherwise.

It also depends on which space and grid you perform the fireworks at as some regions have brighter skyboxes and some grids have their own effects which might be brighter thus reducing the visibility of the effects.

Spacetime Singularity Firework.
Monochrome pale yellow coloration.
This is currently the most expensive of all the fireworks, costing ca 3m per unit. And that price is at a low point, it has cost 25m per unit in the past.

That is an awesome set of fireworks demonstrations. I am hoping to put something together for the 4th of July for the US 250th Birthday celebration. Looking at the Reds, Whites and Blues of course, of the various size explosions. Thank you so much for putting this all together over the years.

Glad you found them useful and good luck with the fireworks show you plan to perform!

Feel free to take screenshots or even make a video of it and post here if you’d like to share, always fun to see fireworks being performed. :blush:

I trash all mine as I’ll never use them.

Why not hand it out to some rookies or jetcan them in front of a starter station? :thinking:

I’m nowhere near a starter station and the system I’m in is nice and quiet, but I’ll dump them outside and see if anyone wants them.

Just keep in mind a jetcan disappears in 2 hours after being launched into space. Alternatively you can put them in a regular container which lasts for 30 days, though maybe without anchoring it is less, not sure.

Maybe if you can afford (have a free contract slot and can spare the 10K ISK contract fee) can put them up on the contract market (not one by one but in chunks once a good amount of stuff you would trash anyway are piled up) for zero ISK or 10K ISK or something.

Maybe a rookie will see it and take them albeit more likely some trader bot will do so but at least the stuff will be used instead of wasted, unless you specifically dislike supporting such which would be understandable nobody likes speculators especially if using bots.

If you have an alpha alt in one of the starter corps then can link the contract there or ask if anyone wants it and contract to them directly, they can handle the hauling themselves, it could be a journey for them to get the treasure and a bit worrisome mystery if this is just a trap or something, and a positive social interaction, which is generally quite rare in EVE unfortunately.

Could be an encouragement to be more social and be less afraid to talk with other people, and yet would not take up much of your time. And at the same time eliminates automated traders to just scoop up the gift contract.

Just an idea for your consideration. :thinking:
