Post by: Juan on June 08, 2006, 08:55:22 AM: First start off by opening your data folder in your VC folder. Then open your particle.cfg with notepad.

Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: Slim on June 08, 2006, 09:50:21 AM: I'm gonna try to make pink sparks and exhaust.
That would be awsome! (And a black bike. Thats style)

Edit: I noticed that -28- used pink sparks in Atonoment.

Sure, theres a lot of things you can change in that file, just remember to back it up before you do anything incase you mess up.

Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: Juan on June 08, 2006, 12:06:25 PM: I guess i can do a tut for SA, but its kinda useless since you cant see them in reps.

Post by: Fleckz on October 01, 2006, 07:29:26 AM: lol, Im sorry for the rather large bump, lol.

Just wondering, What the name for the skid marks on the road, you should be able to change that, right?

Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: bj070893 on October 01, 2006, 07:55:26 AM: Juan, maybe rewrite the tut to show us how to do gradients on it and make the sparks longer and shorter? It'd be a real help.
Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: Laketown on October 01, 2006, 08:09:55 AM: yeah, really want to know
Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: Spoofy on October 01, 2006, 08:53:40 AM: That would be the seckz
Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: Makrame on October 01, 2006, 09:50:07 AM: Great tut Juan, I tried to get my fumes and sparks black :
It works for the fumes, but when i set the sparks to black color, then I don't even have sparks anymore ingame

Can anyone explain me...
Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: Spoofy on October 01, 2006, 12:16:33 PM: Maybe black sparks aren't the way to go, the fumes can be black but I would suggest setting the sparks to a really popping-out color like sunburst orange, bloody red etc

Bit off-topic but he has his education to prioritise, and sadly that means he'll have to be inactive for a while. But he will hopefully still be in the next few TMS vids, since he gave us everything he had in his reps folder before abandoning us

I like Nitzkit's exhaust and general bike best - it all flows together nicely, all working to look that unique.

Title: [VC] Custom Sparks and Exhaust Fumes
Post by: VenomX on July 08, 2007, 04:14:23 PM: I think it is, but pretty pointless, seeing as sparks don't show up in SA replays .
