Enchanted shader for the hurty part of a weapon only?

Post » Sat Feb 19, 2011 5:02 am

Have tried bg2408's one and didn't much like how the entire weapon glows neon (sorry bg :icecream: ). Have downloaded Luminars better effects but I note from the pics the hilt glows in these too. Am hoping the subtle version of his mod will suit my taste.

So looking at these I'm guessing it'd be a lot more work to get what I'm after but be that as it may are there any out there that colour only the blade or head of enchanted weapons?


Thanks

No there aren't. I don't think it's even possible to do this. Effect shaders are applied to an entire mesh, not just part of it, so it doesn't seem likely that anyone could make this.

The mods that add the particles to weapons when their enchanted do that only to the blade, but their still is the glow on them as well. I've actually been wondering if its possible to remove the glow from enchanted weapons but keep those particles since their only present when your weapon is drawn, maybe this would suit the OP's wants? That is, if its doable

Stupid thought that I haven't tested yet, but what happens if you set the material for the blades weapon to "skin" and choose the option to only show on skin for the magic effect?
