<div class="IPBDescription">as seen in ns_eclipse</div> Hey. does any one know how to make those cool electric effects that appear in ns_eclipse several times ?
They are several post/reactor things in Triad area with the effect i mean.

its a func conveyour (or 2) that is/are illusionary and rendermode additive.
the valve erc collective has an article.
mapping FAQ should have links too.

They are made with func_conveyor and using the scrolling electric tecture.

Just select "Additive" and set the FX to 255. It's all set then.

there are 2 conveyors on each effect.
one scrolls top right, one top left... so simply use slight different directions. and turn the texture some degrees so it doesnt look so straith after all. you could add some env_spark that underline the atmosphere.
