Doubt it
It doesn't even matter
You haven’t shown anything worth “good”
I'm just built different
you have to follow the guidelines in the docs
ok
Rank 1 can be given out by anyone rank 2 or higher.
Rank 2 requires majority agreement of at least three rank 2 or 3 members, or one rank 4. Member must have at least two separate submitted pieces of work.
Rank 3 requires majority agreement of at least three rank 3 or 4 members. Member must have at least three separate submitted pieces of work.
Rank 4 requires majority agreement of at least three rank 4 members. Member must have at least four separate submitted pieces of work.
that means u can demote azkron
- has shown no interest {'im too lazy to make good effects'}
- ass as fuck
- can only spam modifiers
By this rubric I am e2 or e3
Pretty much
Ranking disputes are only to be handled by rank 4 members. If three rank 4s agree that another member was ranked incorrectly, then that ranking can be changed.```
bruh u are literally less than e1
You haven't shown any actual effects
^
Yup
You got a freebie on effects 1
because the meshes aren't bad and would be a good base for effects
I am too lazy to actually finish what I started
But that's because
So, no interest
Of end of years
that means no interest so he didnt even follow the free part of the beginner role
which one is better?
Dude
lets see it
ight
its literally inside the ball
it's boring... the sphere isn't doing anything
I’m pretty sure they’re just talking about the particle
if what to do about that
i uv textured it
in blender
In that case, it might look ok
But you won't get an idea of what the effect actually looks like until you've got it in action
a
And I am still not feeling like there is any movement
@magic elk rate this: #✨︱vfx message
Blood doesn't fit well with meshes
I don’t think there’s supposed to be movement
Is it even supposed to be blood?
It's simple because there could be up to 100+ of these going at once in a small area
It would be better to see the mesh as a basic structure that the blood flows around
he asked me
if it's only 1 beam, it's 2 dimensional
And also
need more than 1 beam to give it 3 dimensional depth
yea but if theres gonna be a ton
It doesn't make it look better
that might build up a ton
In any way
ontop of that theres like weird gaps
so ur better off just making it 1 beam or particle s
Also it doesn't seem to fit the ice aesthetic you were going for
f
I've gotten back to working on Spiral Tower Defense, and especially working on the models for it.
Been getting much better at my 3d modeling and texturing skills!
This one is the Frost Spire tower with animations and effects.
so beams?
I'm bad at phrasing things
Blood doesn't work well as a ball it works best as a basic structure that is surrounded by particles
There is no need for the mesh
Also
Just saying
Blood isnt really a good attack
Fr lol
.
yo
rate
my stuff
and tell me what needs to be improved
ty
it's a wind aura for the blade
Add more beams with similar textures lol
aight
FLAME PAINTER SUPREMACY
the tip looks a bit odd
is there a blade mesh
remove the particles
flame painter supremacy?
did u not use flame painter for that
ounches keyboard in rage
i used krita
for the beam im gonna add
a ton of people use it
itll look like this beam hopefully
yeah everyone uses it enma
is krita free
yea
oh i gotta see that
i used cracked versions
like the broke man i am
bruh send i dont wanna pay no more
yayy
oo then the arua is too bright
the bloom is too much
if its just an arua
is there a blade mesh
yeah
let me c the thing without the effects
cell shade it?
yea
why?
cuz particles look too
the tip looks weird
particles are bad for really sharp stuff like that
the thing im basing it off of isn't sharp either
its an ability
they swing then wind comes out
then the aura fades
ye looks like a screaming guy in front of some fancy curtain or something
that sword looks cool
ill eventually rework the texture and try again
gotta get back to trying to figure out this scripting doe
@magic elk so my roblox did a poo
and so i rewent into studio
and now my beams wont texture
nvm
roblox is just being a poo
ima need to do it again
https://gyazo.com/3fb0e26a4ef199e67e8fd787dfab063b first time doing effects
can I have feedback
i got moderated then i lost the other texture so i made a 3rd one so eh
wait
bad qaulity
this one better
It looks good
sanku
yw
Dam how
wym?
@onyx vapor would i be ranked for this or do i have to be better?
that looks cool
mfs that can texture or draw 🤮 🤮
XD
mfs that random erase stuff with layer effects on 😎 😎 😎
i just erase to make my textures
beams r funky
fr
too much texturing required 😔

i think what will bug me the most
is doing the positioning and settings in roblox
¯_(ツ)_/¯
healing potion effect with a bit of shockwave
@magic elk
rating?
i'd add a beam swirling around it... but
and i think thats over the top
Did flashing sparkles instead
https://gyazo.com/9343fac9c1653747668616ba6c340ce7 decreased shockwave rate, makes lines more visable
I like it
MAna regen too
:p
ooh that looks nice
ty
very cool
:)
ye the sparkles made it look alot better imo
:D
thats super cool
im legit done and this is my first day doing particles
WOULD I GET BANNED CUZ OF THIS!???
im so done...
i do all my vfx on an alt account cuz of that
f
oh u have to be kidding me...
never thought of that
AHHHH
well im just more prone to getting moderated
cuz
for my animated vfxs
im uploading like 30-50 decals each time
you do the animated slashes too?
fff
yeah i spam them
maybe
this is really good omg
ty :D
forgot to change the pointlight
_>
fun
https://gyazo.com/547b3242338630c32ebdd8abdeeb5e73 since it was lacking a bit compared to the light aura
hey, updated it
haven't named it yet, a turn based RPG game
seems fun
kinda like dragon quest
now that I think is looking pretty good
krita supremacy 😎
sanku sanku
Higher ranked effects people need to remember that e2 doesn't even have to be 'good'... it's 'intermediate'...
Ayo do you think my stuff is good 😩
Ty
LMAO
Its clean tho
Is the circle on the bottom a decal on a mesh?
🤫
lelelel
Wasn’t me on god
cap
oh so it is. Alright alright i get it now
** You are now Level 2! **
yeeeeee
looks very epic
i think the top particle is a little bit to bright tho
that the brightness could be good for like a flash when the particle pops out and then it gets darker to fit with the rest of the effect
appreciate it dawg
ooo true true thanks
np
@quick fox 6/10
poggers
whats wrong with the texture lol
already 40x better with a simple texture change
ty ty
for the advice
@magic elk @quick fox added a 2nd particle to it
Changed the garbo particle to the epic one
ok now its 2 much
how to do
** You are now Level 11! **
LOL
idk who i told this to but id stay away from '3d beams'
#RobloxDev revamped my non-flat 3d Kamehameha beam to be a lot more detailed.
please check out the streamable for full quality
https://t.co/hFSA51QdCT https://t.co/uNmnELYvkp
i likws these
also theres a unity video going over this
prioritization
dont make everything too flashy
?
that uses emsis textures
also u can get that same look without using 40 beams
mmm
theres no actual way to smoothly fade out beams btw
hmmmm
so that would be incredibly frustrating for the scripter to work with
too many beams wont render in game
ask 4thaxis
whats emsis textures?
textures that he used without emsis' permission
?
its 2 bright and flashy now
which one, the dark aura or the blue/green
blue n green
ur a scripter right
mhm
enable and disable
i wanna see it in burst
what is this btw? looks so cool
ooo
@magic elk im WAY too tried to script rn, i just selected all of them, enabled then disabled
ok so it looks better now but the sparkes look like theyre coming out of like
?
they're on an attachment
idk why i thought it was a good idea, but, eh
they look like theyre coming out of a part
put the attachment in the middle
thats where it was before T^T
mm
sparkles look a bit weird
see here how they come out of the middle
try giving it that similar motion
usually works well in these situations
hold on, changed the size of the sparkles
btw it isn't supposed to be a single burst, it's supposed to last a second or 2 before being disabled
@magic elk
wdym
this
🙂
i was just about to make a texture like that
cuz i wanted to make a lvl up aura
ill remove it gimme a sec
and yea i put it in public for a reason
anyone can take it
just a sparkle texture anyways
thanks
hippity hoppity that image is now my property
yea that looks
TONS
better
just try making the rate like
anywhere from 11.25 to 90
for the sparkles and the taller particles
stripes are 75 each, sparkles are 90
lemme
give gif
too tired to disable/enabled anymore
3 am here
;3;
?
?
its like clipping through the dummy
i can see it on the other side
yeah thats to prevent the glitching that the orientation particles have
mm
meh, looks fine without ig
ik this ain't GUI chat but since you're already here, what do you think of this
@magic elk
the bars look weird when they like
clip into the circle idk how 2 explain
i dont do uis
oof
tomorrow im gonna be scripting my turn battle system look out for that in #📜︱scripting or here, idk where imma post it yet
ea
Dudd
Set the circle priority
The layout is kinda wack
The bars do not look that great
pain
Wait nvm
Wait no I’m right
Well there’s someone else with rank 3 that shouldn’t have it so ig he can

i'm kinda good 
3 doesn't mean "expert" anymore, that's what 4 is
a-
ah-
okay
coulda pinged me
lemme find em

@onyx vapor
I don't spend the whole day on roblox studio and i barely visit roblox studio
🙂
my effects aren't even worth e2

i love @gaunt aspen 's effects but he doesn't like mine

The problem is that the effects rankings were so out of whack
Even after the adjustments I've made to some people's ranks, there's only 3 *s and 6 3s
13 2s and 24 1s
you got e3 because you're in the top 10 best effects artists on the server
oh..
WOOOOOOOOO

THAT GIVES ME MOTIVATION TO OPEN ROBLOX STUDIO
being one of the top 10.. that's AMAZING
What about me 😩
Not there yet lol
Do ones like this: #✨︱vfx message
eh, the systems not great without enough people...
I don’t have a gif of it and I’m not on my PC, I showed you one like that though oof
It was on the wind spear thing
this
Eh... you guys are right... natsu doesn't really deserve 3 either lmao
😭
I don't see any of it as actually being 'advanced'
but without other effects artists, there's not much of a choice
VibeCheck is by far the best here
and he's what you should be aiming for: #✨︱vfx message
@quick fox want a wind attack? #🏃︱animating message
Not really a wind attack, that’s just a dash
-.- how is that not a wind attack?
Good effects are more than just static effect, it's the animation of it too
animations affect performance? :O
Like how enma was telling you to try scripting your particles
I have no experience-
Not true


Lot of top vfx designers haven’t joined this server
Yeah
I've got a feeling that a lot of decent ones end up leaving because there's not much interaction from the higher ranks

Well I mean
People don’t really teach others
That much
Only point of dev servers Fr is to get hired and if people don’t need one they aren’t gonna join
Not much they can gain from it if that’s the cas
I spend 90% of my time helping and teaching others
I haven't even been working on my own projects lol
They only told me to script the enable/disable lol
Also, learning animation later
not a vfx artist but the flame trail on the back is too small and short, it makes it look a bit weird.. depends on the speed of the fireball actually.. if it's a large fireball then it could either be slow or fast
i would say not really
Nice pun
If my effects rely on some scripting can I still use them to get the effects role?
I'll assume for the moment that the answer is yes
Does this qualify for e1? It's effects for when flying the spaceship to add those streaks of light that you commonly see in movies for some reason
and what it looks like in use
Looks like an effect to me.
https://gyazo.com/3375ed1a7d8ea309e4cbd6a1df160e37 @magic elk idk, wanted to try an aura since i haven't in awhile
Hold up, gonna give it some randomness size in a minute
Updated it
can't really find a good aura particle ngl
Do you guys animate in blender or studio 
studio :P
might move to blender eventually, idk tho
I like this a lot

Are the lines that go up particles also
Blender
cool
i tried making a airbending attack im a newb maybe modelling isnt for me ;-;
Yeah no you wouldn't even be able to use that in roblox
Well you could but it would look shit in roblox studios
But yeah here's some advice, don't play with masking too much it's boring to see nowadays
😔
@magic elk IM GONNA CRY

idk what recording thing to use cuz the quality is so bad but heres what im doing
can i have my flame pillar please? 
i was listening to it out loud cuz i lost my earphones 😭
heres another one
i just realised that the cooler your laptop/pc, the smoother and faster it runs

give it more rate
on the first blue one
?
I told you you’ll have to wait until I get back home
Yeah! Compare it to how you would run, the cooler you are the better you'll perform!
And if you get too hot,
You die.
yo, have you made good wind effects? like, wind based attacks
if so, what do you use? particles? beams? both?
cause i tried a wind beam and welllllll...
send me a ref of what ur tryna do
don't really have one ig

just realized idfk how to do water or fire effects good
no i struggle wit those too even after years
BET
its frustarting to get shit like that to look good since they dont really have a certain shape to work with like most things
water and fire both kinda flow freely
MY MAC IS ALWAYS HOT
and roblox particle system is fucking awful with that
also uhh for wind
that was like 2 days ago 
how does forcefields work?
this tornado is uv wrapped
fr
i only rly use particles for wind waves and impacts and shit
gl 
ok gl anyways
thanks
uv unwrapping 🤤
tell me if you figure out a good way to do water lol
Find high-quality images, photos, and animated GIFS with Bing Images
this just seems
impossible
on roblox
If you were to show a blank image
** You are now Level 4! **
I would have applauded you
.3.
what would roblox even do to update the particles to that degree
its possible already but through the kinda scuffed "animated meshes" method
if roblox added actual texture scrolling or just shaders in general it'd be really easy
^
it woulnt even be particles
what we need are beams that can wrap around meshes
that would change
EVERYTHING
it'd be a ribbon
ye
with like something scrolling on them i think
yes thats how alot of them work
just ribbons and meshes with textures on them
basically we just need shaders

not really
^^
but until mobile is out of the equation
we wont be getting anything that fancy
anytime soon
unity and unreal have shaders and stuff and theres still a bunch of people who suck at vfx
i bet theres probably roblox fx artists who are better than unity and ue4
maybe better texturers/drawers and stuff but they'd still have to get good with nodes and shaders n stuff
???? Cause I’m not in town
Makes sense.
tyty
yw

Good shi
if it's blood, I'd recommend increasing the opacity
If you've ever played League of Legends, I'd take a look at this: https://na.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/champions/vladimir/
whoa thats cool
looks like math and tweens to me
Yeah I know, don’t know what the specifics are.
ask the person that made it
:|
that looks sick
THANK YOU
ok but what the hell is jittai for?
my criticism: its to cool
im not good enough to give crticism but it looks great
how did you make the beam?
the clan?
Yh, you know Oreo jittai?
Also feedback? https://streamable.com/tv8dxw
I think I already posted this.
Oh I did
Uhh how about this then.
ty
yh ik him, and yh its a clan made and owned by a dude name Omei, he left all roblox related shit and sum1 else was the owner, now he's back so idk.
beautifuL!
thats woth like 3k just for the particle itself
no.
yes
U did neon and some particles lile mist ?
So bad ;-;
Yea yea
thank you
oh nice
so bad what
What ?
ayo guys anyone got cool bullet effects?
anyone know how to make this
** You are now Level 3! **
just a trail
but like the effects and the lighting
500 at most.
the inner effect is good
trail.
but it falls short towards the outskirts
wdym?
** You are now Level 3! **

o?
Who did u get it from i am in crazy need of lighting effects
dont understand
basically
get rid of this
increase this a little
oh yeah
and change this for a shockwave
or just remove it
idk lol
idk, i can't remember their user
its refed from this tho ;0
that was your goal?
kinda
let me see what I can do
a
"I have not evolved into a better particle maker yet... My 3 day span of making particles has failed me..."
xd
i see
use inner glow on the swirls
????????
how do i do that?
do you have photoshop
no..
cant help you
particles are really fun but i'm pretty sure I already mastered them
gonna move onto trails or beams soon
I want to get good at seamless looping of textures
krita has outer glow and inner glow too
right click the layer then click the one that says layer styles or layer effects i dont remember which one its called
looks cool
Thats cool
i cant get over this
Mess with texture speed, and try selecting both the disabling then re enabling them at the same time
No
Problem
guys
how would I make a gun effect
like when the bullet hits something
how do i make sparks?
Hey, I see you’re still having issues
Show me the settings you have on both beams
Did you select both then disable then enable them?
Hmm
Try setting texture speed to 2
No, trust me, it’s not
Manually set the number to 2
Didn’t fix?
Huh, odd
Try messing with texture length
Maybe make it 0.5 or 1
its gonna get you e1
pirate iti.
o
iits ook to steal from adobe
o-
i've been asking the same question for three days in here about making gunshot effects, but nobody replied, so now I gotta pay for it
baka baka baka
needa hop back on ma effect grind
** You are now Level 9! **
does this get me sfx 1
change the textures of them
thats the only way i can think of
bruhhh
i hate beams
Beams r ez
