Sword Shards here is my constructive feedback! Get a life. :lunar2019piginablanket:

Thanks, I guess we can both agree on that, haha

dusty decay is actually cool

Lmao what has this comment page turned into? I have no idea how creating an innocent, harmless, spin on Merasmus's aura turned into a discussion on art guidelines. If you wanna check out something that ain't "nebula-like" (if it even is), maybe you'll like my Dusty Decay" effect instead. Have a good day sir.

Being an artist does not mean you make good art, just look at a certain Austrian art school reject
龍之純潔綻放「DEMON」 7 Oct, 2023 @ 12:52am 
yeah my feedback is that you just made another nebula-like effect, hoping to create a high-tier effect, but we already have a sheet ton of these. and my question is do you enjoy the feeling of not being special and original in your creations. im asking you this as an artist myself
fly  [author] 6 Oct, 2023 @ 1:29pm 
@GoatM88N yeah, I did enjoy making this :^) the rest seem to like it, but if you have actual and constructive feedback, that would be better instead
龍之純潔綻放「DEMON」 6 Oct, 2023 @ 12:06pm 
did you really enjoy creating a 10th nebula-like effect knowing it wont be added to the game

More effects like this need to be made that actually look like an effect that'd be in tf2, regardless of whether it's an unusual. It's not neon green or pink, it's just a subtle green.
Berserk Beakie 5 Oct, 2023 @ 6:32am 
Very nice, unusual effect submissions should strive to be like this

FART!!!!!
NotMe 18 Sep, 2023 @ 8:04am 
Merasmerized, more like fart cloud. :steamhappy:

Great effect, thanks for staying true to the concept and not making 3 ugly colour variants, it’s perfect the way it is now.
DaVinchi 10 Sep, 2023 @ 5:08am 
this effect actually does look really clean and is a great proof of concept. i like it.

@Valve add this right now
fly  [author] 8 Sep, 2023 @ 2:59pm 
Sparkles not being necessary in every effect is something I agree with too, they should be adding to an effect instead of becoming a distraction. Thanks again for the feedback!
MeatwadMeatwad 8 Sep, 2023 @ 2:55pm 
I guess that's fair.
I just see people chucking sparkle effects into everything without second thought which kinda makes me averse to it. At least you're not overdoing it which I appreciate
fly  [author] 8 Sep, 2023 @ 2:49pm 
@MeatwadMeatwad while I believe many effects over-do the sparkles, I personally believe without would make this effect too flat. I have already toned them down to make them a bit more subtle, but would like to keep them in to establish an "arcane" look. They are not terribly noticeable unless close-up anyway.
MeatwadMeatwad 8 Sep, 2023 @ 2:26pm 
Remove the sparkle
Greeb 8 Sep, 2023 @ 1:34am 
i promise i wont unbox that evil VVizard VVeed effect

10 minutes later
Evan 8 Sep, 2023 @ 12:46am 
Awesome! Good work!
Not Asder 7 Sep, 2023 @ 11:10pm 
Clean, simple and amazing!!!
fly  [author] 7 Sep, 2023 @ 5:05pm 
@Lothudus that's precisely it! I have the glow, smoke, and ring pos on model (though set the attribute to spawn in the hat instead of outside the hat to get it closer)
Lothudus 7 Sep, 2023 @ 4:57pm 
am i dumb, what would it be? pos on model random but for hat?
fly  [author] 7 Sep, 2023 @ 4:28pm 
@santumerino thanks! ^^ will hint that the secret has always been there in the Initializers section of the particle editor, just surprised that not many submissions seemed to have utilized it yet!
ʃwə 7 Sep, 2023 @ 4:16pm 
every so often a new unusual tech pops up and it ends up looking sick af. this is one of those times, good work!
fly  [author] 4 Sep, 2023 @ 11:44pm 
Decreased size of particles, increased particle count for optimized hat coverage, and added very small, occasional "dust" particles, similar to spawning in. Youtube hat showcase will be uploaded shortly, thank you all for the feedback!

To be honest when it comes to unusuals; Simpler is better, and this effect shows that. Would shrink it down a tiny bit tho
hipposeducer28 4 Sep, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
Really love unusuals like this that remain simple and don't go the route of making everything bright and flashy.
keywii 4 Sep, 2023 @ 1:02pm 
very simple and clean looking! i like how its not as bright as other unusuals, so it fits more!
fly  [author] 4 Sep, 2023 @ 12:49pm 
@DaVinchi Will do as soon as possible!
DaVinchi 4 Sep, 2023 @ 12:47pm 
make a video that shows the effect on all the other hats.
