What is VFX Editor?

VFX developers currently need to use a large number of tools to work effectively, as the default tools in Studio lack certain features, requiring plugins to fill the gaps. These tools vary in quality and often do not integrate well with each other.

To address this, VFX Editor was created. This plugin offers a comprehensive set of features that integrate seamlessly, complete with full redo/undo functionality and a beautiful UI built using FusionComponents. It has a minimal learning curve and can serve as a seamless replacement for the existing properties window.

Features

Currently, VFX Editor includes the following features:

A custom number sequence editor, supporting a wide range of easing styles and full Bezier curve support.
A color sequence editor.
A texture storage system, which simulates a custom file system for textures, with full flipbook support.
Comprehensive support for every relevant property, allowing you to replace multiple plugins and the default Roblox properties window with a single, all-encompassing tool.
Full undo/redo support for almost every action.
Full theme support, with both a default light and dark theme.
A lightweight mode, offering a stripped-down version of the plugin that includes only the most essential features, designed to mimic the original properties window for a minimal learning curve.

Get Started

VFX Editor is available via either the Roblox Marketplace for $4.99, or via GitHub for free. The Roblox Marketplace version is purely to support me and to receive automatic updates.

The GitHub repository contains both pre-built releases or allows you to build VFX Editor yourself. A guide for this is in the README.

The VFX Editor Wiki contains a short explanation of each menu and keybinds that may not be obvious at first sight. It is recommended to review it in order to ensure that you are using the plugin effectively.

Interface

Below, each menu is individually showcased in both light and dark mode. The themes automatically adapt to your Studio theme, and the plugin maintains a consistent design no matter which theme you use.
