Adding graphical effects to Ep. 4 armors.

I remember hearing this is possible, and that it would also be very easy to do. If so, I have some thoughts on what could be done. There's probably no need to add anything to "trash" armors.

Lt. Mantle: Same effect as DF Field but blue.

BHC: Same effect as Soul Banish or, if that looks bad, a dark purple Aura Field animation.

Ignition Cloak: A red Aura Field animation. (Flame Garm animation is just too obnoxious.)

Tempest Cloak: A yellow Electro Frame animation.

Congeal CloaK: A darker blue Sacred Cloth animation.

BOVN: Same particle effect as what Mr. X has in "A New Hope."

I think people would be very interested to see these changes. I've seen it voiced many times that Sega did a poor job about not adding any animations to Ep. 4 armors.

Any thoughts on this?

Just a quick follow-up post because I never heard anything back on this one. I know this would probably be low priority, but I think it would be really cool.
 
I wanted to bring this one up to the forefront now that the forum is public. I'm only going to do this with 2 of my old suggestions so it doesn't get spammy, but I think this was one of my better ones. Thanks!
 
I remember us talking about this over VC and really liked the idea. Despite the functional additions that EP4 armors added, I never liked that they felt so blah because of the lack of visual flair. It's that combo of armor and shield that really add to your character's more "complete" appearance. Also as someone who specifically geared my HUmar for BOVN, I'd love to see some affects out of it.
 
might be unpopular, but i'd like to not see this happen tbh. i really don't like the Aura Field animation so i don't think i'd like to see it on my FOmar with Ignition Cloak. maybe if the effects were significantly more subtle...i like subtle effects but i'm not sure how i feel about my character being on fire all the time.

to be clear, i'm not against added effects, but just not more aura field :)
 
How all frames and barriers should look in order to make shadow_FIX happy:
