Effects and FX Lab
Effects (hits, skills, auras) are text scripts in resource/effect/ that combine particles and models. There are two tools for them.
Effects
Section titled “Effects”- Lists every effect of the game folder, with search; an effect script can also be opened from disk.
- Plays the effect in a 3D preview (play, pause, restart, floor grid).
- Effect editor: duplicate, move and remove particle and model blocks, create a new effect.
- Edit in FX Lab opens the selected effect there.
- Save: the edited script is downloaded.
FX Lab
Section titled “FX Lab”A workbench for building effects with sliders and curves.
- Start an empty effect, or open an existing effect (from the packs or a file) or a preset.
- Preview it free, on a hero bone, or on a hit target, with a hero animation and a background colour of your choice.
- Layers: duplicate, reorder, remove.
- Presets are kept in this browser (FX Lab library) and can be exported and imported as JSON.
- Export: the effect script and its DDS textures, or a sprite sheet PNG with a JSON frame list. All exports are downloads.
