Cruelwxrld – Particle Effects

• Ambient effects
• Auras
• Beams
• Abilities
• Projectiles
• Portals

In the future, the pack will be updated with new particles. At the moment, there aren’t that many effects, but I hope you’ll find them useful!

The textures were taken from open sources or used from addons I started with while learning particle development. Unfortunately, I can’t list all the sources, as I don’t remember them exactly. If you’d like me to credit you, feel free to contact me, and I’ll make sure to do so!.

Some particles behave differently depending on your FPS. You can adjust this by changing the fps_max value. The higher your FPS, the smaller the sprites will appear; the lower your FPS, the bigger they become. It’s weird, but that’s just how the engine works.

You can spawn particles from this pack via:

Qmenu → Entity → "Cruel – Base"

or any other addon for that.
Special attention should be given to:

• Beams
• Lasers
• Auras

Beams and lasers need to be spawned using control points ( from 0 to 1 ).
I’ve listed an addon in the required items that handles this perfectly – and you need use Local name not the name of entity, you can get it thru STools aswell ( https://u.yufu.su/18m.png ).

Auras can be attached either through any particle control addon or manually via code — same goes for beams and lasers if you prefer doing it that way.

• /aura @ / ^ /SteamID name time
• /removeaura @ / ^ / SteamID
  

  @ → parent to Entity/NPC (simply put, the entity you’re looking at)
  ^ → parent to yourself
  name → the local name of the particle (advanced), or the name of the entity via "Copy to clipboard"
  time → the duration the particle will be parented. If not set, it will stay parented until removed
  SteamID → parent the particle to the player with the specified SteamID

Example : /aura @ fire_aura 10 ( it will parent aura what to NPC/Entity what you’re looking at on 10sec )
Example : /aura ^ fire_aura 10 ( it will parent aura on YOURSELF on 10 sec )

I would really appreciate your feedback on these particles, and I’m also open to any ideas you have — from any sources, as long as they can be recreated in Garry’s Mod. Feel free to share your ideas!
