Realistic Flash Effects - Easy-to-Use

Hey Roblox Developers!

I’m excited to introduce you to RealisticFlash. This module brings a realistic flash effect to your games, inspired by the flashbang mechanics in CS:GO. RealisticFlash stands out for its:

  • Realistic Flash Effect: Create visually stunning and highly realistic flash effects that will enhance your gameplay.
  • Ease of Use: Implementing this module is incredibly simple and requires minimal setup. Just require the module on client (LocalScript) and call Flash.new(Duration) to get started.

How it looks in-game.

Very interesting. I expected the classic “viewport frame + clone workspace”, but this is definitely more efficient and looks great.

What an good effect but…:interrobang:

If you are testing this effect in a huge game with 10MB ,i have 2 not going to reveal They can almost crash your Roblox Studio

It’ll not crash because I’m not using viewportframes to render the world, the effect takes screenshot and uses it so it is not effecting the performance. Please take a look at the code and you’ll understand. Thanks!

I’ve found that uses Capture Service And the fact that fewer games use this is almost useless but if I think there are more ideas with this, make it a topic and I will review it and watch it…

Thank you! This idea came to mind, so I brought it to life and decided to share it with everyone. I’ll do if I have more.
Bascially I used the Capture Service to create this effect, ensuring it doesn’t impact game performance like viewport frames do. Since I’m not rendering the entire world, it saves a lot of processing time. The current system I’m using is essentially just an image—no different from a regular UI element.

That is extremely smart. This would have never come to mind if I was making something like this.

Love this resource, hope to see more by you as your work seems high quality.

Can this also be tuned to like to a flash pattern on just the outer edges , but still visible in the center ?

Like the red area is flash effect, and the blue inner area clear

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!

:laughing:

Of course, you can modify the animation directly within the script.

I would recommend either utilizing UIGradient’s transparency property to create smooth flash pattern or adding frames and giving them animation to cover the ‘Red’ section you mentioned.

Let me know if you need more detail!
