ayo can someone tell me how to make effects, ive been really wanting to do it for a while. just dont really know how (sure i can change the properties but like i wanna know some of the complex things)

[wise adder]

e1 isnt hard to get

[quick fox]

** You are now Level 12! **

[rose finch]

yes it is

when nobody ever ranks

[lilac reef]

It seems to be annoying to get, bc if one pixel doesnt look right the e3s will butt r*pe you.

[wise adder]

that doesnt make it hard to get

thr things they make compared to an e1s ofc theyre gonna point out the bad parts

[lilac reef]

I said annoying 😔

[wise adder]

its called feedback

[lilac reef]

The effect people seem much more vicious then other ranks lol

[wise adder]

if i posted something they would say "bro thats so bad leave" or some dhit

and no thats just 2 ppl

[pseudo hearth]

Thing is.

There is no standard set here, it's just show what looks good and hope you get the right amount of praise for it.

So eventually, experienced people take the lead and set people towards a right direction.

Wa aleykum as salaam, el chickeno.

[wise adder]

the e3s would have higher standards

it depends on what they think is good

one of em might think

something is fire

and one might think its bad

[pseudo hearth]

Thing is, you shouldn't look at ranks, rather their judgement & advice.

I'm taking judgement as critical, since any lack of beneficial input is considered vague.

[wise adder]

if theyre saying something looks bad and not pointing out on what it is or how it improve it id just ignore them

their feedback is essentially useless if they dont point it out or help

yeah its just asking e3s gives u a better chance of being ranked or something bc the mods will listen to them more

[calm mortar]

Is this good enough, or it's looks weird?

[pseudo hearth]

Ask yourself.

What is it supposed to be?

[calm mortar]

idk what is it but here's the example XD the thing on the middle

[quick fox]

** You are now Level 4! **

[granite sky]

why is the lightning transparent

[bitter sorrel]

can i ask where do u get that beam texture?

[pseudo hearth]

You know what to do with the colors, I assume.

And I'm sure you know how to layer, a few different textured beams on-top of it at a slightly slower pace.

You could use dynamic skies and have a scripter, script it that the beams would originate from the clouds with some invisible attachment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNtZfP8E9_8

And I guess you're settled from there, redirect non-vfx related questions to your scripter.

https://gyazo.com/7f22ba694e4331aa2873d40054301ccd flight take off and land vfx

[pseudo hearth]

secondary element: black and white grains, don't really fit the aesthetic. I'd suggest you to change the colors to light complementary values, such as an gradient going from gray to white. (Or the color palette, used for the dust but in a contrasting manner).

Gyazo Framerate, is setting you up at the moment. Increase the rate, by an increment of 20 for more of an dissipation effect.

[pseudo hearth]

For the landing VFX, debris is an possibility, but take in mind that it doesn't go in harmony with the set baseplate/material. (Unless you really wanna feel like re-coloring your debris decal, 5-6 times to fit with most regular used objects).

Nonetheless, good job.

[frank cosmos]

I kinda agree in a way, try removing the grains? Still sick tho

[pseudo hearth]

Grains could be used for the take-off, as an seperate stylization layer. But they really should face the direction the player is going to jump from.

[frank cosmos]

Maybe if they were more centralized, so it looked more like specks of dirt following where the player jumped up from? Idk, have fun with it tbh

[pseudo hearth]

Possibility yes! Really depends on how he wants it to look like, great addition.

[shadow parcel]

Nope its for a certain ability

@pseudo hearth so I'm currently making a dummy shoot out soundwaves, any tips?
https://gyazo.com/251df088d3c965e0a4df06484533cf51

its for a magic game

ill do the floor animations later

yo wassup

[pseudo hearth]

Honestly, ROBLOX needs distortion shaders.

[bitter sorrel]

yea...

[pseudo hearth]

Draw a texture, where there's just a plain sharp white circle. Make the sound-waves, gradually fade out. And draw an status effect, for the dummy which has been affected. Example of an status effect.

[bitter sorrel]

ooo

nb

i can try that

thx

[pseudo hearth]

Make sure to take care of those circles first, there is no need for sharp protruding edges for sound-waves.

[bitter sorrel]

so its okay if the circles are not

completely round?

[pseudo hearth]

Fix the colors just a tiny bit, make it that they are in a sort of gradient.

[pseudo hearth]

Depends, if you wanna go on the messy look go for it.

If you want it clean and polished, take the other rotue.

[bitter sorrel]

ok

[pseudo hearth]

I just realized, why are these two going the other way?

[bitter sorrel]

u see

the one nearer to the dummy

its like

um

how do u call it

[pseudo hearth]

Close-up, anticipation?

[bitter sorrel]

"boom before launch"

[pseudo hearth]

Anticipation.

[bitter sorrel]

yea

[pseudo hearth]

Starting from this part, is the impact?

[bitter sorrel]

it shoots out from the dummy

[pseudo hearth]

Ah.

[bitter sorrel]

idk why its going in circular

[pseudo hearth]

https://gyazo.com/a79cb17af1a409e2a312fb1d74fbfc12

[pseudo hearth]

You require better textures, you still get the point dragged towards it being an electrical beam, but it's just lacking that wow-factor.

[sudden fjord]

made the texture myself in like 5 seconds its just for a game and its a low level ability

[pseudo hearth]

It won't matter, if people don't enjoy viewing it.

[sudden fjord]

whats wrong about the texture

its supposed to feel almost like

wiggly

[pseudo hearth]

It's too basic, nothing wrong about it being simple.

[sudden fjord]

oh

[pseudo hearth]

You should try to add some stylization, to your FX.

[sudden fjord]

what do you mean

[pseudo hearth]

Since this reminds me of oldschool arcane magic, which is permissible, but not really looked upon now.

[sudden fjord]

not close

[pseudo hearth]

As in making it more pleasing to the eye, as if it was eye-candy. If it's a low level ability, make it feel like it is one, but seperate it from the more heavier effects. Doesn't necessarily mean, everything has to go booom, and over exaggerated. But more collective.

[sudden fjord]

I don't really understand whats not pleasing

hard to explain what its supposed to be

but its meant to be a bounce off wall projectile

with a needle towards the end

[pseudo hearth]

Look, I can't lie. It looks decent, but it's just too basic. That's the point, i'm trying to carry over to you.

[pearl dagger]

it looks completly fine to me

[pseudo hearth]

Show the entirety not just half of it.

It does look fine, but I'm telling you to step it up a bit and improve the quality of it.

Unless you just want to keep it at that certain level, then so be it.

[sudden fjord]

just wait till its done being scripted uhhh

the quality you're refering to

is probably the intentional blur

its just what I do trololol

[pseudo hearth]

When I mention quality, I try to refer it as an sort of standard.

You set the standards yourselves, but if you want to step it up and tone it up a notch, focus on texturing.

[neat socket]

@pseudo hearth how much you want to be hired?

to make particles

[pseudo hearth]

The better the standards, the better the quality.

[pseudo hearth]

Prefer to take this in DM's.

[sudden fjord]

[pseudo hearth]

[neat socket]

@sudden fjord I might of had made an mistake, while writing the sentences earlier.

How is your game supposed to look like, and abilities?

[sudden fjord]

bleach game

[neat socket]

making a gmae bro?

[pseudo hearth]

I need to check up on that before, actually trying to drag across a point.

[sudden fjord]

its not exactly how its supposed to look in the anime

but intentional

sometimes the anime visuals are inconsistent so I just did my own thing

[neat socket]

iam making a game too

https://streamable.com/elq6z7

[sudden fjord]

but in short it'll make shockwaves when hitting off walls

[neat socket]

but i need better effects

[sudden fjord]

and deflect accurately

with sound effects and stuff

[pseudo hearth]

That's why game translation matters, as-long as you can drag the core visual into your game, you're sorta settled.

[sudden fjord]

the texturing might look basic in color scheme I guess

[quick fox]

** You are now Level 13! **

[pseudo hearth]

It's not the color scheme really, it's more of the texture itself.

[sudden fjord]

the lightning or the wiggly thing

[pseudo hearth]

Could you send me a reference?

[neat socket]

bro is hella hard find a good effect maker for a fair price, and when you found they are busy already

[sudden fjord]

lightning was pretty lazy to be honest

also what u mean reference

[pseudo hearth]

how it looks like in the anime.

[sudden fjord]

oh its far off from what it looks like the anime in a lot of aspects

like mine comes from the hand while that one is supposed to sort of like chain through metal

best I could find tbh

[pseudo hearth]

You've noticed, flaws but since you mentioned you wanted it to be heavily customized then don't worry. I guess.

[sudden fjord]

in short

[pseudo hearth]

I can't really like put an visualized thought into this, so it's hard to explain.

[sudden fjord]

something so unexplained that you can sort of freelance with the concept

and make it however you think would be cool

thats what I was thinking

yea I been trying to make my textures better though all though i'v only made a couple

i'll try to show the ability when its done and tbh i'm sort of excited because through out all my effects this would be my first scripted one

AFk

[pseudo hearth]

I'll just wait for ya!

[pseudo hearth]

Keep practising, while using actual references. Most effects look pure dull, when compared to an reference related to it.

[sudden fjord]

back

yea I never use references

probably should try

anyways leaving discord again for a little longer to go work...

will be back soon

[pseudo hearth]

Anyone that can tell me the practical use of this? Except for it to look cool. (calling it a bad practise, nothing practical about it).

Alright long story short, commissioners are straying away from the value of VFX on ROBLOX.
It's outrageous at times, but guess what why or how? We as VFX Artists are held responsible, there's plenty of newcomers venturing into Studio, learning how to apply effects and more into their workflow.

I'm not necessarily saying that it's bad rather good, but this is the point where it all kicks in: As the craft expands, wisdom gets shared, the value gets decreased.

So far, all I've seen are visual effect artists, starting with a low current baseline price, not really knowing how to actually value their work, unintentionally dragging down the rest of the artists with them simply because it's some sort of domino's effect.

Commissioners knowingly or unknowingly are taking advantage of this purely based on the fact, that the prices are low and are set by ("advanced" artists), and "every artist should maintain that, no matter the quality difference".

This is extremely wrong, and shouldn't even be tolerated imo.

[neat socket]

Like when i make a sustem

*system

[pseudo hearth]

boom, Enma.

[neat socket]

I save it

Than If other client want

[boreal gull]

why tf u talk about "fair" man

[neat socket]

I sell for less

[boreal gull]

[neat socket]

It need be fair

[boreal gull]

"fair" doesnt make you better scripter

[neat socket]

But make me have more clients

[pseudo hearth]

Minimum wage slave mentality.

Get stuck in that loophole.

[boreal gull]

How to make numbersquence max value more than 10?

[boreal gull]

my question

[magic elk]

has to be scripted or wait for lunite to release

[pseudo hearth]

Do you think, everyone here is from the same league?

[neat socket]

Should you be asking that on #✨︱vfx ?

[pseudo hearth]

There is a reason, why prices are dynamic based on skill.

Yes, because you don't really understand the matter it seems.

And if you knew, you wouldn't of had said that earlier.

[magic elk]

fr i aint spent fucking YEARS lerning just to get paid 20 bucks for a whole pack

[neat socket]

Not true, i was scripter 3 here before i leave, and i Still making Fair prices

[magic elk]

and the amount of lenience and workarounds i do for lazy clients who dont provide assets/game info pipelines etc

[boreal gull]

Oh

[magic elk]

[boreal gull]

I just messed up with size

[pseudo hearth]

https://tenor.com/view/displays-library-books-harpers-bazaar-bazaar-gif-12368924

[pseudo hearth]

if shit doesnt change, we gotta resort to doing patreons teaching people how to do vfx properly

on robloox

[magic elk]

this is any other profession

[pseudo hearth]

LMFAO

[neat socket]

I mean its easy for you since you are pro with that, script is easy for me too, but doenst mean its the easiest thing, its relative per person

[magic elk]

there are litearl fucking trillions

[pseudo hearth]

vfx = crazy out here.

so broad

[magic elk]

and the worst part is

[pseudo hearth]

everything needs to get translated into the roblox engine

[magic elk]

its ONLY ON ROBLOX
stuck on unity vfx? theres websites such as realtimevfx and people like shannon mcleran

ue4??? same shit

[pseudo hearth]

😂 😂

[magic elk]

is a lost cause

[pseudo hearth]

[boreal gull]

learning doesnt require talent

[pseudo hearth]

but not now

[magic elk]

or do yt vids but all the good information

[pseudo hearth]

i want people

to realize

[boreal gull]

esspecially in vfx..

[magic elk]

u gotta do a patreon or something

passive income bruh

[pseudo hearth]

what state roblox vfx is actually in rn

[magic elk]

• raise vfx standards

[pseudo hearth]

facts

[neat socket]

Again i cant okay, i tryed ,iam not good with any type of art

[quick fox]

** You are now Level 3! **

[pseudo hearth]

we can do that together yk

[boreal gull]

so u made one particle emiter?

for one big png with all effects

?

just play with every option

and something cool gonna hapen

[neat socket]

I cant make things beatiful man

[magic elk]

the most id probably do is type in concept lessons rather than on studio in the engine

[neat socket]

I cant even draw

[pseudo hearth]

Thing is, wisdom should be shared carefully these days

before every fucking high-quality tier, price turns into 5 usd

cause that shit is whack

[magic elk]

ngl the standard for a while was so low tho

[pseudo hearth]

bro it was low for a long ass time

modifier spam

like come on bro?

[magic elk]

that even sharing wisdom now wont do shit
cuz mfers ahve their head stuck far up their ass

so now they think theyre hot shit

and uc ant tell them anything for their own good

so its litearlly a pyramid scheme

[pseudo hearth]

it iz what it iz

[magic elk]

thats probably why all the god tiers dont even be sayin shit no more 💀

[pseudo hearth]

so lets just get ontop of that pyramid scheme

[neat socket]

If you everyone start charge like you guys roblox Will die Very fast

[pseudo hearth]

if people won't change, we can.

[magic elk]

bro

[pseudo hearth]

bro

[magic elk]

i promise u

[pseudo hearth]

tell us a few people

[magic elk]

mfers make

[pseudo hearth]

who can EXACTLY

just even remotely

COME CLOSE.

to what we're able to create.

just even

REMOTELY.

[magic elk]

actual fucking thousands off of vfx
and ur telling us 350 usd is too much??
woahh 100k robux we got mr money bags over here 😱

[neat socket]

For one particle emmiter is

[magic elk]

the only few people i can think of are kuro and vibecheck
Both of which charge way more than i do

[neat socket]

I charge 30$ for a combat system

[magic elk]

idk how much zoro costs

[neat socket]

And a good one

[pseudo hearth]

omg, im a game dev i earn 150 mil robux from just cashgrab mechanics, but i cant pay a commissioner a fair share for UPGRADING the SHIT out of my GAME!?1

[neat socket]

100% customizable

And smooth

[magic elk]

and people outside the rsc like sav make way more
blaze made litearl thousands

[neat socket]

Not everyone make crash grab games

[pseudo hearth]

correct, and even those are good

[neat socket]

Me for example my game dont have crash grab

[pseudo hearth]

yet some are greedy

not all.

issue is still here

thats what matters

[magic elk]

even a small game makes as much as 50k in a day
In a week that's already enough to get almost an entire game's worth of vfx

[pseudo hearth]

facts

most of them dont realize

how VFX

can instantly upgrade their game

[neat socket]

Yes Bro but and people that are making First game like me??

[pseudo hearth]

yet they expect 5 usd to do it

[magic elk]

fr

[pseudo hearth]

😂

[magic elk]

or 70 an hour

[pseudo hearth]

its madness

[neat socket]

Overpriced ones

I dont do that

[magic elk]

just because u dont wanna charge as much as everyone else doesnt mean they should lower them

[pseudo hearth]

#1 example

never ask people

HOW MUCH

they are willing to offer.

800 robux for that

[boreal gull]

yes, it is

[magic elk]

actually i be doin that sometimes i got 95k for a single hit effect

its a huge gamble

[boreal gull]

it

works

?

[magic elk]

wtf is that

[boreal gull]

doesnt matter

just

question

when he said "fair" price and he's scripter

[pseudo hearth]

my rate = x

i evaluate it by simply looking at references, and how picture-perf and good I can achieve it, mostly above 25K per asset

[boreal gull]

in 90% it means he doesnt know how to make scripts good enough

[pseudo hearth]

if its the good shit

[neat socket]

Iam sure ik

https://streamable.com/elq6z7
