For example, what would I do to make the Fuel Rod Gun's blasts red instead of green?

And how about the explosions and the gas that it vents when overheating?

yes it is possible, its in the bitmaps section in hmt, i dont know wat each thing is called, but when you open the bitmaps tab, press the "w" key and scroll thrught the weapons\....... things.

I looked in there and I'm not finding anything. I found the textures for the FRG itself, but not for the blasts it fires.

i think its called plasma cannon or somthing like that

Yeah, I know that... But I can't find a projectile texture...

Explosions and the projectiles don't use bitmaps, they use shaders.

oh.... Well, I'm not finding any shaders for them, either....

help? pwease? ;_;

They don't use shaders either. You can't really do it on PC. CE, you can, PC you'll have to figure it out.

actually
the shaders use bitmaps, so either way hes right

I figured it out well, sorta. You know how the plasma rifle bolt is pastey white? Well, I opened up HMT and clicked on Light. Then, I swapped the plasma rifle bolt for the cTurret and it made the projectile a bright laser blue. ohhhhhhhhhh. pretty. lol. so far i've been able to make projectiles either green or blue, but i'm still trying to figure out how to make them red. hope this helps!

Nice Bump!

Thanx! ya, I got pics of the new projectile on my site if u wanna take a look. http://groups.msn.com/THETYRANTBATTLE-NET. In the mean time, I'll see if I can find a decent one for red. The red emitter beam from infinity works, but is too large and has one heck of a powerful lens flare. I'm sure there's something out there though

You do know how old this topic is right tyrant?

Ya, but I figured I'd give it a shot just in case Mobius is still keepin' track
