ok....ive tried everything....all you can do is change the color of the bolt when it is fired....i changed to blue and there is a blue stream behind it mixed with the green.....looks kinda cool....but the charge is green and the splat against an object is blue and green

This is CE not PC chalupa.

You can change the glow colour somewhere, but I'm not sure where.

goto the Plasma pistol weapon folder. find the tag thats bolt.light_volume in that tag you can edit the RGB color of the light.

although that might not be exactly the right light it could be any of the .light or .volume_light tags in that folder.

I'll look but i do not think it is in there, remember i am not trying to change the plasma bolt, but the charging effect.

ok heres another idea.

open the plasmapistol.weapon and look under attatchments and find the light chargeing attatchment.
