Ok....

1. How do I change how the proj looks? Like skinning the proj. The projectiles arent in bitm.

2. In containment outside the map its white and really bright. I skinned that to look like yellow sand but its still really bright. How would I make it look like normal? Does that have to do with the lightmap?

eidt removed #3. Im a tard

What do yu mean, like the rocket has effects attached to it, you could edit those, you could also edit the model of some such as the brute shot projectile and grenade., you can also edit the contrails.
For containment, the litmap makes it really dark, just turn the brightness down

ok so i can edit the models in photoshop? Like what i want to do is change the color of the projectile.

and i dont want the whole map dark, i want just the outside white stuff dark.... i cant seem to get it dark.

Also, how do you make weapons see through? I cant figure out hot in photoshop.

you can't edit models in photoshop you need milkshape 3d, you can't make a weapon see through in photoshop, try playing with shaders, they're fun! To just get the outside dark require some pain staking hex I think, I don't know how to do it but someone else may. to change the color I belive would be contrail modding, try to find a plugin for it. and I hope its ok that I'm using that quote in my sig.

ok. yeah thats fine. Heres exactly what I want to do. I want a see trhough brute plasma rifle that has the red orb glow inside, then i want to change its projectile so its yellow.

edit: Im not just going to play around with the shaders.... I have no idea where to start. maybe give me some direction???

In the dependencies for [mode] you can find shaders. All you have to do is swap the shad for a different one and then test how it looks.

Ok but i still need to know how to make a clear brute plasma rifle and how to make its projectile yellow.

do you want it to be like active camo, or completely not able to see type thing?, i don't know if you can change the color of light volumes yet.

No, I want it to be translucent red. A lot of people have weapons that are like this. Its translucent but a color.

to make clearish weapons just swap the shaders with something like sentil_illum which if you replace every shader for the gun it will be a clear deep red...anything that ends in illum is see through but colored. the beam rifle shader is like a blueish shade, flak cannon is a clear green, ive seen others but you just gotta find em yourself
