Not a great concept for an effect but i guess it was executed fine.

Every single particle effect in TF2's build of Source consists of .vmt files that point to .vtf files. Every Unusual effect in TF2 is a collection of one or more floating sprites. The way they are arranged can be really simple to extremely complicated depending on the overall effect that the creator(s) and artist(s) want to achieve. Particle creation is quite limiting in some areas and very customisable in others. Only being allowed to render .vmt files is one of those limits, sorry to say.

Average clueless workshop comment, if only they knew how hard things really are

Actually yes it did. Unironically this effect took several hours to get to work right, as the movement ended up being kind of buggy. I don't know what exactly Ronald_D_D did to fix it breaking when the player moved, but it took a good hour and a half on his end + the good 3 hours to get the movement to function correctly, on top of getting the sprites to properly orient themselves.

must’ve taken a long time and lots of effort to make floating pngs
