Pros: Nice shield(charge) model
Cons:
The reason why I am posting about the nodes is that you make it very hard on the moderator. If moderator wants to suggest the fix of particle it is going to take him forever to find it. This is likely to provoke moderator to reject your model as simple edit. So name UNNAMED nodes. Adding unnecessary parents leads to two things. that you copied each node and did not even bother to hide it, or two that the nodes are animated. Since yours in not the latter I assume that you copied the nodes. Other than that the parenting adds to the file size. I am sure I am not supposed to tell YOU this, but if you post something, at least have the courtesy to make it decent.

Well, if parenting add's to filesize next time i will fix that moment, but at all, these effects are a little piece of my fx works, currently my FX stash is around 100+ effects, and, for sure, i try make each effect that fast as it possible, so, have no time for naming every node. Some times, when i'm seeking for matching texture, i can forget about unused textures, but most times trying remove everything that is useless.

I can exactly feel you pain. I know what you are talking about, but still you need to clean your model before posting.
