O_O LASERS

This pic proves nothing… here… i’ll prove it…

learn how to code weapons 8-)

Exact same idea… a long beam with no tail

The static image doesn’t show what happens when…

1. you move
2. on the next refire
3. the full fx from fire to dissapate

So… it’s totally irrelevant and no more a proper beam weapon than what’s in my pic… I’ve been coding weps for 4 years now… i should know

actually i saw something like this in MD’s Rebalance mod. it is in fact not more than a simple beam, like any other laser beam, just much, much longer and with a extremely high refire rate so you sometimes feel “cut” by the beam.

Agreed…

If Nova would ever bother to search and look for himself… he’d know that, as its one of the 1st things you learn to do (normally)

Im not having at go at you Nova… but it is getting silly… look for the info 1st… try it yourself… THEN come asking questions when you have at least a basic understanding of the task at hand…

You’ll look alot less silly then….

it is rather a beam effect (ini coded), not an ale.

the proper beam weapons was one of the first weapon types modders wanted to include as most scifi used them: stargate, star trek, babylon and multiple others. at that time ale editing was not yet possible as simple as today. beam effects are much simplier and do the job not worse than any ale would do.

those ale weapons on your screen are no long beams and are vanilla effects of rheinland battleship guns. and xarian’s beams with rings could be recreated by rising the projectile speed. the only change i see in these are some colors and maybe sizes (don’t take it bad, xarian just can’t see anything extraordinary that nova is trying to show us).

you should really try to search a bit more for yourself, nova, then you’d see these things without any help - believe me, i have not yet made any custom ale.

Still the same concept.

Read a bit yourself, or you’ll never learn.

HINT: Color codes are Red-Green-Blue, and only goes up to 255 each.

A good examople is the “Beam Weapon Mod” that comes with FLMM, which youre not using.
This mod edits the Justice MK I effect, changes it’s colors and makes it longer, so it looks like youre shooting a rainbow. Download FLMM and see the code.

A “Laser” is what you see in every W_Laser type weapon - color stripes. Just edit the length of it in the INI. As much as I understand, the little rings on the effect are like the “bloodhound” effects used in the “Codenames”. Just try to edit one and see the resault.
