Angry [BOOTANIMATION] -- Assassin's Creed Killer Boot Animation -- by Camotec

Hi Guys/Gals,

ABOUT:
Ok like many people out there, I am an Assassin's Creed nut so I decided to make a boot animation for my android.

I did this using the stock ICS boot animation as a backdrop with a blood red hue. and then blurred it out to make it look slightly out of focus. I then created an Assassin's Creed Logo in 3D and then gave it a dirty crystal look so the blood red backdrop shows through a little. I made it only spin once because I didn't want a tacky unfinished look (animation stopping halfway through etc.). and on top of that long animations only slow down the boot time of a fast device. I added a delay of a second on the end to just show the logo on a black background while the system loads.

- Thanks Wigglerip

Here is a link to video of the boot animation running on a HTC Vivid/Velocity/Raider


DOWNLOAD: Click Here



INSTALL INSTUCTIONS:
It is built for the HTC Vivid/Raider/Velocity at a res of 540x960 however I am led to believe it will work on any device.

- Download the Boot Animation
- Rename the Boot Animation to bootanimation.zip or Telstra_bootanimation.zip (if you are running the Stock Telstra Rom on a rooted phone).
- Use ADB or a GUI app like Droid Explorer to copy the file over the existing bootanimation.zip and then reboot the device.
- Enjoy.

FINAL WORDS:
Boot animations take time to create (when your not just splitting up frames of a video etc). So if you like it, please give Thanks.
Depending on the feedback I receive, I might do a few more animations as well.

Cheers
Camo

A couple of questions...

How are you trying to replace it? (what are you using to actually replace the file?)

Have you got /system mounted? Some people have to load into recovery and mount /system and while still in recovery they flash the files from there.

Maybe your phone is not rooted?

If on root explorer you have to change from read to write on the top right corner I believe and change permissions
top x/x/o
middle x/o/o
bottom x/o/o

cool bootanimation. could you possibly make a version that repeats the animation? it would be awesome if you could. i know you said it slows it down and dont want it to look tacky when it stops mid ani, but i kinda like the repeating look of the stock ics bootanimation.

Hi man,

Should be under /system/customize/resources/ if your running a Telstra ROM they call the bootanimation something different, if so, look under files starting with T.

I could be wrong but I do believe my phone boots a little faster with this. Also, I've never played AS but the boot is pretty cool! Thanks mate
