Title: different pulse colors
Post by: Dieselfame3 on January 02, 2007, 04:29:34 am

does anyone know how this is done, usually the pulse rifle colors are pinkish but sometimes i see blue or white trails coming from them, and in this picture they are black. How do people do this?

Unlike old Quake player skins and Q3 rail trails, you cant reskin your own pulse trail so that others can see it. Unless someone screwed up their modded server, this is a bug.

Similar to how a mara zap looks like a pulse rifle beam?

I guess you can just replace the particle image that's used for the Pulse Rifle trail effect with a different coloured one. I'm not sure though.

That pulse marauder bug really should be fixed, and I believe happens when the game engine screws them up in graphic intensive moments.

From what I've seen, the pulse marauder bug only seems to happen when there is a fair amount of pulse spam flying around close by... :advmarauder:

that really happens, i've seen it also. but it's not that disturbing.

[EDIT]: maybe the two bugs are the same: at one hand the beam is not visible(transparent), on the other the beam turns to be black. probably clientside settings are changing its visual appearance.
