I guess this won't be taken for 1 reason.
Taking texturs from other effects.

-Purple effect has the bubble from the bubbling effect.

-Red effect has the fire effect taken from burning flames..

-Yellow and blue has the or similar to the medigun beam.

I'm not hater. (voted yes btw)

I get where you are comming from but if you use sprites from another effect, it wont penalize you in any way. As long is its not from anying except tf2 or completely made up. "The mystery to everyone effect" was made by a community contributor that used the cloud sprites and skull sprite from misty skull and stormy storm. If a new effect is accepted into the game and has any new sprites, those are all now in-game content and are usable to everyone who goes in the particle editor.

That's a neat insight.

I was more concerned with the symbols themselves and what they might be read as.
It would be a pretty nifty way to sneak something crude into the game.

Lol Naw, the symbols are completely made up. Would be cool to have meanings to them, but I was just wanting to add something original into the effects. They are suppose to signify magic symbols you may find in shows or anime when casting a spell.

There are super rare and perfect effects with a cheap price as well.

What about halloween efects that are literally just copies of regular effects like cauldron bubble and knife storm?
Tiny Tony 17 Oct, 2017 @ 11:52am 
there are currently 6 fire effects in the game and multiple effects that all use similar or the same textures often taken from other effects.
And its added LOL

Nice necro


Ice didn't make it in because valve generally accepts effects in groups of three if they can.
Ice was either the least popular or valve just didn't like it for whatever reason.
