Ok, since the recent thread with the video with blue LGA's and a Blue Fire effect I have gotten 6 PM's on how to change it after i posted my white flames and many have posted asking for this so without any more waiting I guess I'll show how to do so.

First you will need the proper plugin for your graphic editing software, I will share 2 links to the most common (PS and GIMP)

Also to make things a bit easier you will need a dds viewer so you can see the thumbnails as normal images.

Simple Note: The thumbnail viewer does NOT work with vista, as it does not use thumbnails.

Now with those in hand and installed you are ready to start.

Secondly you need to find your texture folders, 4 of which are pretty easy to find.

One being, C:\Program Files\Gpotato\Flyff\SFX\Texture

The stuff in the SFX folder is as it sounds and focused towards the different effects.

The next folder are,

C:\Program Files\Gpotato\Flyff\Model\Texture
C:\Program Files\Gpotato\Flyff\Model\TextureLow
C:\Program Files\Gpotato\Flyff\Model\TextureMid

All of which hold the textures for your sets, be it CS or Class sets and weapons.

WIth the thumbnail viewer your files should now look like this:

-

Here you can see the files for your fire element effect, as well you can see that I have edited them to be white flames. which turn out to be, And yes, the little circles are the images to change for the actual weapon "glow"

Photoshop

1. Right click and open the file you wish to edit, you should get this dialog box in which all you have to do is press ok.

-

2. Click on Layer -> New Adjustment Layer -> Hue/Saturation at the top ( or simply the half black and white circle -> Hue/Saturation ( In the layers window pane ))

-

-

3. Move the sliders till you get the desired color.

4. Save, and replace your originals and you're set to go.

That's all I'm going to show right now, should be enough to get people started in it. You can always go into more detail and recreate the effect all together, or replace it with another effect (example board trail with fire) and so on.

I'm just more used to photoshop, having used it since photoshop7 first came out :

Gimp is also free, and isn't all too different from photoshop. Mostly the same tools, just the UI is a bit different. Can also get enough plug-ins and make it EXACTLY what photoshop is :3

How would one go about changing the glow soo that say, +10 electric weapon effect would glow on a +10 Armor set?

you would have to experiment with that, tbh I havent messed with graphic stuff for flyff for a long time.

@ryu
At least the necroer didn't bring back a flame post or a useless post. Most of the stuff can still be used in this thread.

Yeah, honestly i was hesitant about replying because it was 8 months old, but i was told to use the search bar ;p this was the only thing remotely close to what i needed so i asked.

@blackbox thanks anyway guess i'll just fiddle around with stuff.
