Re: Adding Glows 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).

Re: Adding Glows 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.

Re: Adding Glows Wait, so do those two colours glow by default?
That seems a bit silly...

That seems a bit silly... There's three colors that do that. Golden, Light yellow, and Light Blue. It's how muzzle flashes, jet flames, and tracer rounds glow without needing some more advanced outlining outer glow effect thing.

Re: Adding Glows 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.

Re: Adding Glows 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.

Voila. Gun will glow. 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?

Re: Adding Glows 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.
