decided to make a fire slash effect and its a reference from an anime.
Just need feedback and tips on how to improve this.
Oh yeah.
I only used beams and instance.news

This looks really nice, but perhaps a tiny trail of steam could make it look a tiny bit more realistic, and on a weapon could possibly looks nice. Overall, great work!

This looks sick! But how did you make this?

It’s just a really complex piece of code I’ve been trying to perfect for 6 hours, but to simplify it. A function to create a part to hold all attachments and beams, a function to create the attachments and beams every render wait in a pre determined direction and to finish it off some fire spark effects. I will post the entire code for it later, it’s just one script with no additional parts so you could just paste it in a local script to test it yourself

Thank you. I unfortunately cant heart posts for the next 11 hours due to me liking a lot of posts

This looks very cool for a more cartoony game. the very end of the trail looks very off because it is blunt and doesn’t taper back down.

Oh! Thank for explaining this!
It totally will help me in teh future

Nice work, your effects are super cool and the way you use beams to make them is even cooler

if you are gonna use this in any of your projects, i recommend to deviate from the looks of the original effect
