To add yellow glows- Use the same yellow they use in gold. For blue- Use the cyan in the color tray (if you're using paint). |

You can't add Screen Effect glows to an HDFirearm. What you could do is attach an emitter which emits glow particles with a low lifetime. |

Wait, so do those two colours glow by default? That seems a bit silly... |

Okay but can you add a green glow by using aemitters if so how |

Yes. First, you need a green glow. Then, you need to add that glow as a screeneffect to an MOSParticle. Make the lifetime of said particle about 10. Underneath Mass, add this: "PinStrength = 10000", tabbed to the same as the other lines. Now, make an AEmitter. Make the emission the glowing MOSParticle, with a rate of about 1000. Go down to your HDFirearm. AddAttachable = AEmitter CopyOf = Glow Emitter AddAttachable is tabbed to the default gun levels, CopyOf one beyond that. Voila. Gun will glow. |

Can you set which colors on the gun glows for example to set the light greens only to glow |

You don't understand, only three colors in the pallete glow. If you want to make a "glow" other than that, you need to make it emit particles that LOOK like they are glowing. |

Wouldn't MOPixels with screen effects be simpler and a bit easier on the engine, not needing sprites and all? Or maybe even putting the screen effect on a flash of the emitter, so it's just got one constant glow to worry about, instead of constantly deleting and creating more pixel/particles? |

Is everyone forgetting that emitters hate weapons? E.G: Leave one in the inventory for too long and you get uberlag? |

I don't think that mopixels can be attachables. |
