Always wanted to figure out how to do stuff like this (loved that rainbow scout poster you did), I love messing around with colors on SFM, been making posters ever since a friend of mine taught me how. Although I have a request for a tutorial because I have yet to figure this out along with my friend. Killstreak eye effects. Thought they would work out just like other particles but for some reason they just don't want to show up for me. x_x

Thanks. I hope my tutorials will help you improve then. The killstreak effects and sheens are something no one has managed to get to work with SFM so far. I might try those again, even though my expertise is more about the lighting side of SFM. If I figure them out and get them working nicely, I'm going to make a tutorial. You might want to +watch me for that.

Sounds good. Oh I found some guides on Steam, I think this should help everyone with dealing with Killstreak eye effects and their sheens. I'll test these tips out and get back to you on this to see if it works out or not.

There's the guide to sheens, it also has the link to a guide on eye effects. :3

Oh, that's great! The last time I searched for tutorials, there weren't any. I definitely need to try these. Thanks for finding and linking it here!

No problem. Got the eye effects to work marvelously, just the sheens that seem to be a bit more complicated. x_x

Think I can give this one a try too, when you're not around to glorify my dmx file.

Sure. I really like glorifying your dmx.s, though.
