Missile Texture/Appearance

Wed Jun 16, 2004 10:18 am by Daekar

Hey, I've been poring over the tutorials and trying to extrapolate from the energy weapon tutorials, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change the appearance of a missile. I know there's a *.mat file, which I'll figure out how to edit when I come to it, but there's some other effect, a const_effect or something, which I can't find. Does anybody have any insight? I'm trying to change the colors of the missiles to red, blue, and light yellow..

The const_effect links to the files in FX\WEAPONS, which are in .ale format. As of yet, nobody has been able to edit those files, at least not to my knowledge. They control effects that are more than simple beams, like explosions and said missile trails

I may have found something:

It looks like this company makes graphics software that opens ALE files...
