Unusual Weapon Effects

Description
All of the pre-Jungle Inferno unusual weapon effects. Big thanks to Fiopon for finding a fix for the energy orb effect. You can find his guide below.

File Pathway: Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\workshop\particles
[note: if isotope crashes your sfm, then move the offending pcf file to your (SourceFilmmaker\game\tf\particles) folder]

Includes:

weapon_unusual_cool.pcf
weapon_unusual_hot.pcf
weapon_unusual_isotope.pcf
weapon_unusual_energyorb.pcf (FIX FOUND) See the steam guide below:

[https://gtm.you1.cn/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1268496950]


Can be added like any conventional unusual effect in sfm. Just select the effect you want, and use the drop-down menu to select the weapon-type you'd like the effect on.

[Disclaimer: when testing the energy orb guide on some weapon-specific effects, I found that some do not work. However, the energy orb effect for the stickybomb launcher appears to work and serves as a decent base for other large weapons like the rocket launcher and flame thrower.]

Nvm, apparently it was because it didn't like the TF folder for whatever reason.

Any idea why the isotope is taking up too much memory and is crashing SFM?

I tried both shotgun versions, one was missing all its control points and the other looked fine but didn't act fine.

did you select the correct version of the effect? I think it would be something like shotgun_parent.pcf

I did space them out, still was acting weird.

Some of the particles start with the control points all bunched together and you have to space them out, which would explain why the particle is just a little ball when you spawn it.

Yes I am C:

I used the sniper rifle unusual effect on the shotgun, it worked well but it might be confusing for anyone else who runs into it.

Cool shotgun file is broke :(
It's way too small and the control points are acting weird.
Not sure if you're still checking this but I wanted to mention.

you have to use the particle system editor in sfm if you want to change its color

oh ok sorry, I forgot to say I found out it works, you just need to click "Instance Particle System", then change color. It does not change to color, but it makes the particle work.
