Was Wondering If Anyone Knew How This Sword Appearing Was Made ?
oh wow, i would wonder the same thing
so basically
u seperate the hilt and the blade, make it neon white first
u tween the hilt growing, after the hilt go for the blade growing into its normal size and tween it to its normal colors
beam effect → neon → return to normal
and turn off the stretch?if there is a stretch option
It probably uses a part with the Glass material to hide it, with the neon sword being at a very low transparency (but not at transparency = 0 ). Glass makes any transparent parts behind it completely invisible, so that’s likely what’s being used here.
A beam could work, but I think that’d be more effort and it wouldn’t look good from all sides, unlike the method I said.

Wouldn’t the glass be noticeable though ?
Nope. You can set the glass transparency very high, so much that it’s shown as being 1 when it’s actually slightly less. I made an example here:
You can set the glass transparency to 0.9999999, which is just about the highest value before it rounds up to 1. I think it’s invisible enough to be used. The neon part is 0.0100001 transparency, which looks like pretty much the lowest value you can get, and it looks normal.
The material of the sword could also be being set to “ForceField” for a short time span before being reset back to normal.
I don’t think that’s the case because it’s clearly glowing as if it is the Neon material.
