New weapon idea but need help with FX.

I imported my darkfighter and I am planning on making a weapon for it. My idea is to add weapon if short range that looks like fire breath (planning to mount it in its mout - gona make him a real dragon ). The problem is that I do not know which munition_hit_effect and const_effect to use. Any suggestions would help me a lot.

I have edited all the effects of the weapons in the game I think what you are looking for is a plasma weapon with a high refire rate, something in the range of 0.010000 it definately looks like a flamethrower.
I forget which one is the red probably a kusari plasma but you can easily change the colors of any weapon munition.
If you want me to make a gun or edit a weapon for you let me know and I'll either post it or send it to you your choice.
Glock36 is also a weapons expert and can help with weapon construction.

Thanks you for your kind offer BakedPotato but weapon making is the easiest thing for me (does not include FX but I am learning ),so could you see red plasma weapon for me I would appreciate this, anyway if you know any good tutorials on system making I could certainly use those cause this will be the first time I do that.

And thanks for the tip I will be certain to try out the plasma gun.

in the features section access form home page
FL: How To Create a New System
in the tutorial forms
## Tutorial: System Building from scratch. ##
(How-to) Creating a new system, updated 17.03.

Looks like your working too hard I was doing this and started making mistakes so I took a break now I havent worked on the files for two weeks. I still like to answer questions though.
I.ll look for the gun you want but I have lost interest in the game after Glock36 told me about the new game coming out in September called Xsomething I forget but as Glock36 put it, "looks like freelancer on steroids"
