You could use a contrail editor and make the contrail an extremely light blue.

Light blue ;o?

Don't you mean yellow?

Just use the Contrail Editor.

i meant make it have like electric bolts and stuff flying off of it

You might be ably to swap effects, but it might not work. What weapon are you doing this for, or I mean projectile.

rocket from rocket launcher im going to get them scaled down to use as a trank dart

well You will have to edit the prt3s of the proj. If you are indeed using the rocket proj, I recommend editing the exhaust effects. That would be the easiest.

I would change all of the prt3s to ghost/electric_discharge_large. That would work quite well IMO.

If you need me to go into detail, I can .

thnx smokey you and foxfanatic have helped me alot!!!!! and another thing i want u guys to try my map once im done

Ok . Send it to me whenever its in BETA.

Did you understand what I said though?

i think ... but i cant find the prt3s though

edit:nvm i found thnx for the info again

Only plasma type guns have that I believe so go for the exhaust effects like smokey said.

should i null out the pmov though because it is a warm smoke cloud or would that mess my game up

It wouldn't mess it up at all. It just changes the physics of the exhaust smoke. It really doesn't make a HUGE difference, but it won't hurt to mess around with it.

nulled it is then
