Bullet tracers & Smoke trails (+ Lasers)

-- English --

I was looking for a good particle add-on to enhance bullet tracers, since I love the feeling of seeing the bullets fly past me (Not irl tho xD). But I couldn't quite find one that suits my likings. I do found one but then I discovered several particles are stored into a single .pcf file.

This was a problem because it prevented me from having several extensions I liked active at the same time to achieve the effect I was looking for. So, since no one had done anything similar, I challenged myself to learn how particles were made and try to do it myself :3



The idea I wanted to achieve was actually pretty simple, adding smoke trails to bullet tracers to make them look a little bit better. I used the Dim Bullet Tracers made by Luneyl comes in as a base. So credits for him/her. Then I added the vanilla tracers back again with a little changes here and there since his/her tracers only were the smoke trail. And that gave the tracers that feeling of "traveling throught the air" on a more noticeable way.

Althought, I took the luxury of playing around a bit with the particle settings.
I made the smoke trails a little bit more dim and made them dissapear faster so they don't block the view completely.
I also added a little extra and made the lasers green for a more tactical feeling since I also found a particle mod that did that, which I really liked a lot :3
I do want to leave a link to them in case someone wants them as a standalone :3
