So, if anyone succeeded with this, please give me the particletrail-code for a lasertrail.

Pretty sure that'll do it.

Oh, that is so neat!

I tried it and it just looks great. Thank you very much, sc4freak.

Any pics?

Actually, you *might* want to change "Color1 = R:0 G:0 B:255 0" to "Color1 = R:255 G:255 B:255 0" to hafe a bit of white in the middle.

Yes i know, sc4freak, i have to tweak it abit and i won't get it to pulsate but it's still waaaay better then whatever i manged to put together before you helped me out.
