very cool and brings me a shock awaha

@BotherRed
Fairly certain the models you're asking about comes with source filmmaker. In the tf2 dooms day lot. Here: props_doomsday\power_core_type

Do you have a link to the Tesla towers you used in the screenshot?

its very long unfortunately

This looks really good, I can't make it work, but it surely looks cool if you know how to use it

Hello! When I export a poster the outlines don't show up. Do I have to use a specific config?

Not for Animation. Only posing or Single Render, Like instead of the Electric bolt being straight it could be like a Zig-Zag like. But its mostly for Renders for now

@☾Nightmare Danish💔
I have been working on an animation for that but it's proving a bit challenging not to say I've given up but yeah just letting you know I have considered that.

Are the bolts posable so you could make like a Curve bolt?

I'm having the issue with the glow, like how it's described in the description.

It didn`t glow, it just didn`t glow, I`ve followed instructions on screenshots and it didn`t bloody work, model only goes white and black and that`s all.

The color is showing, but when I go to render, it only renders in white. I tried the solution in the screenshots and it didn't seem to work. It's not much of an an issue, and thank you for the awesome model!

im having a problem that whenever i render a poster the outline of the bolt doesnt show up

@Phobias
Thank you very much !

@Dead inside
As for why it's a .mdl format is because that's the format the compiler puts it into and that this it is a model not a particle as models use .mdl particles use .pcf so why you're trying to convert it is kind of confusing.

This all being said from my experience of working with particle systems I found that the model can be placed in a particle system. I found this out with this tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShpZT8mZ1VU&ab_channel=Argodaemon

@Dead inside
Sorry for the confusion the reason for it being incomplete are for a few reasons actually.
1) When you submit content on the workshop the
"Includes:
Phobias\General\Effects\Electric_bolt\jointlesselectricbolt.mdl" automatically writes itself out.
So I technically didn't write it out.
2) I've been leaving it like that for all my content and you are the first person in all these years to bring this up.
3) Different operating systems will have slightly different file paths so I could only complete it as far as "\Steam\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\workshop\models\Phobias\General\Effects\Electric_bolt".

May I ask?
WHY is the specified file location incomplete?
SourceFilmmaker \ game \ workshop \ models \ phobias \ general \ effects \ electric_bolt? Why is he just in the models? And why is it in mdl format and not pcf?
I have no way to convert it ...
I do not work much in sfm. Only 200 hours is not enough and I don’t know much, but I need answers to these questions.Thanks in advance for your reply

Why it isn't glowing when i export pictures?

UNLIMITED... POWER!

this is so cool thanks

New update people!

@DEMOPAN TF2
It's a model

I can't seem to find it in my downloads. Is it a particle or a model?

just use jitter

ok to any noob you must use the X Y Z PATH WAY OVER THE ROTATION MOVE SETTING

o no i have to animate each party

how do i highlight only some of the bones?

Most recent example of its use: https://gfycat.com/deadlyclumsygnat

@Nitromancer
I'm happy for you. Glad you don't have the same issues that others are having on some of my models, issues I have no idea how to fix as the issues don't appear on my end but only theirs.

Just coming back here to say, This is an incredible Item. I use it very often, and its surprisingly versatile.

hmm... it'll take some work, but it will get the job done

YES! A LIGHTNING BOLT!







I hope this works...

Im having some trouble making the bolt shorter

I cannot shrink it. Every time I try, it just thins

@doshter
In hopes that you use motion editor did you make sure to select only a certain amount of time? Cus jitter won't work if you have all of time selected.

the jitter doesnt seem to work at all

@Veggie Ice Cream™
Cheers for the compliment.

This is amazing!

@tmbcyberman
If you're looking for Leaf Shield, your best bet would be to head over to the GMod workshop and grab the SSB4 Mega Man stuff from there. Porting it over to SFM will also give you models for a good chunk of Mega Man's various weapons from SSB4.

As for Flame Blast's fire pillars, you'd be better off looking at Pyro's flamethrower particles for that one.

I wish these were textures it would be perfect for me :D

Then can you do a bunch of the weapons like Flame Pillar, Leaf Shield, etc? Because I have found this to be very effective as Thunder Beam

@tmbcyberman
Can't do character models until I learned how to make HWM character models.

Can you do Tomahawk Man from Mega Man 5?

you are welcome! you were a genius creating this mod and geniuses deserve to be properly credited and praised for your work!

@meowfia leader blitz
Totally appreciate it!

I am definately going to put this model to good use! I may even use it in a future animation of mine too! I will provide a link and credit you when finished.

I used this in a video. Thanks!

i've tryed out finding whats wrong and the black bolts work but lack the transparency of the display images, the white bolts are still all white no matter what.

@X-Hawk369
@OgglGoGs
I do apologise that the skins appear to be messing up somehow. A few of my other models I've given the glow effect to work for a majority of everyone but every now and then I get messaged by a few people that it's not working for them. I've been looking most everywhere for an answer on how to fix the issues for the few who have this struggle. It's especially hard for me to find an answer since the models obviously work perfectly on my end.

All I can advise for now is to make sure the camera bloom scale is higher than zero, and if you know how to work with materials and their coding maybe investigate other models that aren't mine that does work for you and see what they've done differently from me to get it to work.

The second I find out how to fix these problems I'll get right on to updating all my models with this issue fixed.

Actually that is very cool! But when I let it render, then the color disappears and is completely white. This white looks like it was painted cheap with Paint. How can I fix this? :/
