but that's not the only thing to modify! a plasma bolt may be made by:
- a contrail (cont)
- a glow, or light volume (mgs2)
- some tail effects (effe), but only in plasma cannon and plasma pistol's charged projectiles.
- a model (mod2), but only in plasma cannon's case.
so, yeah! if you want to change the color of the whole projectile you will have to modify those tags too!
... and also the impact effects if you want to do a perfect job!it will take a little longer probably, but it's worth it IMO.
so, uh yeah! i'll write instructions on how to do this!
Light volume!
• open your map in eschaton, go to mgs2 tags.
• click on the tag you need. let's say, weapons\plasma rifle\bolt.
• in Meta Editor goto Reflexives > Frames > Frames 1 > Color ARGBs > tint color hither.
• click on the Color Picker button and choose the color or modify the sliders as you please.
• repeat green step(s) with Reflexives > Frames > Frames 1 > Color ARGBs > tint color yon.
and voilà, that's for the mgs2.
*TO BE EDITED SOON! CHECK THIS OUT LATER!*
Only Taxi would dissect a plasma bullet.
