how would i make a custom laser. a hole new weapon
1)what program would i use
2)how would i use it in the game on a unit

[pieten]

i suggest you go to the gaming forums with this sort of questions

[ComradeJ]

I suggest you might wanna find some tutorials somewhere.

[guyee]

if this is your first time editing generals, doing a laser is gonna be annoying, just because the game is so damn stupid when it comes to making lasers work properly... temperemental and the like

[tanka]

lol, i know nothing about particle systems. i don't need to use it much for my mod, although i might have to for AA guns.

[Botjer]

use tracers from normal bullets to create laser, the laser physics sucks imo

[Boomerang_Python]

What if i need blue lasers instead of red and a bit larger?

[DJRowley]

I can do that for you. Its still in the tracers though. Its in the Fire FX settings as thats how I made my railguns.....

i know this is going of the subject a litlle bit but can you chainge the color of the nuke if you can how do i do it

[samthebobman]

go into the OCL.ini and look for what effect the nuke produces, then look for it in one of the FX.inis, change the rgb values to change the colour, the minimum is 0 the maximum is 255, mix them around to create different colours and shades. That way you can make your black napalm black, instead of blue, you can change the colour of the nuke, infact you can change the colour of any of the particleFXs. For the Warhammer 40k only war mod, there is a better way to make the rail gun for the tau, which is more like it is described in the codex, pm me and ill tell you all about it.
