About:
This mod adds three melee weapons to the game.

Light Particle Sword & Dark Particle Sword do 220 damage, cannot be augmented, have blue/red effects, trails and hud icons.

The Master Particle Sword does 250 base damage and has four open augment slots has mostly white effects that are slightly larger, white trails and uses the epic quake hud icon because I couldn't find anything else that was really cool.

Spawn As:
OBJECT_PARTICLE_SWORD_GOOD
OBJECT_PARTICLE_SWORD_EVIL
OBJECT_PARTICLE_SWORD_MASTER


Boring Stuff:
This mod uses an alternative method to attach effects to melee weapons, you can use multiple effects and the effects don't disappear when swinging nor do they duplicate with each swing - better appearance and no lag.
This mod also adds new effects. There weren't any cool lightsaber ripoffs already there. Except morerunes' Avo Will Torch/Skorm Will Torch available in GWAS. Truth is that I got the idea from morerunes' work. Smile

*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
This mod adds new entries to the effects.big, use FE to load the FMP.
Or make sure to open the effects.big archive in ChocolateBox prior to loading the mod.

Enjoy.

Thanks for the mention, and I really do like these better than my will torch Wink

However, I actually got the idea from DarkenedSoul who made a lightsaber before me, posted screenshots, but never posted a mod.

Wow, you messed it up again:
Well, somebody screwed up, but it wasn't me this time. Razz
The FMP adds new effects. Don't use CBox to load the mod, or if you do, at least make sure to open the effects.big archive first. Wink

So I've come up with what I think to be improved effects for this.

Screenshots (warning, they're all 1280x1024):

*Trail textures are original textures.
**Each weapon has just one effect, but divided into two parts. One sort of pulsates and is attached to the weapon. The other is fainter, lighter and trails the weapon for a split second.

Here's my question: Would anyone be interested in using these new effects?

Heck, if you make a cyan one I'll use it for Avo's Will Torch. I'd really love that.

They aren't. You have to spawn them yourself.

It's always nice to see work actually being used. I started messing with effects after Silverback pointed out some of their format.

I used that knowledge to make a sword that cried particles, and the bandito hat with smoking cig in the gallery.
