Ok, just recently got SWBF2 and was trying things out in modding it.
I found something interesting (some of you may know this already but bear with me), apparently SWBF2 renders particle effects differently from its predcessor. I was placing in some of the custom effects I made and noticed some stuff.
#1. That cool Conc explosion needs to be redone, cause the center doesnt get rendered and its really faded compared to it in SWBF1.
#2 I'll let the pics speak for me.
SWBF1- com_sfx_weap_sonic_exp_sm.fx (just the label I gave it). This one you've seen already.

SWBF2- Exact same effect, but as rendered in SWBF2

I frankly like the SWBF2 render of it waay better.

Effects Showcase
since we have a topic for glamer shots, new skins, new models, and more (maybe more) i think that we should have an effects showcase thread. i just like making effects...
i'll start with the ones you have probably seen before in my assets pack but i already have alot of new effects but i just need to take screenshots of them and upload them.
[Warning: the pictures are bright and colorful with bloom that has hurt people's eyes before]
well those are some of mind now you post yours and we'll start this topic off

When I make my sides for my current map, I'll advertise any effects I make here. But to others here, fantastic effects!

I would actually consider myself a noob at making effects...
Next time I'll try to make some explosions...

Sky_216 creates some of the best fx out there, that is to whom they refer.
