Shader swapping

Post by Soul of Doom »

Hey man Ive got a little question ..
Im trying to learn a bit with shader swapping , and Ive made the sword green . i did it with 2 controllers and soon I saw that from another persons view that the sword has the original color , just the way it is ..
Can I make it so , that it is on another one's view also green ?

Thanks ^_^

Cool thanks :)
And now Ive another question ..
I wanted to swap the jackal shield emitter shader with some of the rocket launcher but I dont know which ones you know ...
First I did something , then Almost everything and there aren't any changes . I swapped something with the plasma rifle over the carbine and that one is even the same too like allways ...
What am I doing wrong ?
