Inverted spheres with pointy bits on the end right?

I believe it was zwzsg who found how these look in full 3d rather than those 4 sided 'crosshair' flares TA uses

*sighs* I have had them in gundam well before that thread was ever started, but noone plays that mod.

I play your mod. Not that there is anyone to play it with, but what the hell.

Even if I was very happy when I go that idea, I'm fairly sure I'm not the only who ever thought about harnessing the power of inverted faces to make shots with gradient look good from any angle. When I think about it, I realise that's probably how lasers in Descent were done.

Nice. It's really too bad that certain other things aren't working yet, like being able to attach a COB script to the weapons, otherwise we could do some super-neat stuff. Been scripting new explosion FX for some things, but they aren't... transferable yet.

Updated it. The file now contains missiles/bombs, tracer rounds and the plasma shots.

New FX splosions? Like 'good' ones, insted of the rather limp ones we have now?
