First of all, I'd like to wish everyone a merry christmas and happy holidays.
Now for my question: I am project leader of Imperial Assault, and me and one of my coders, DJRowley, are trying to figure out how to put together a really good pulse laser effect. We have tried doing a projectile with a laser-like skin, then additive to keep away the black outside of the skin, but we have only achieved limited success:
The product is transparent and ineffective. We need the same look, vibrancy, and effect of the laser of the laser tank, but in a pulse manner.
What are our options? How can we achieve this Star Wars laser effect?
Thank you.
