Lightningball

[Need_O2]

Hey all I wanted to learn how to make a lightning ball like on hands of Lich when he is channeling a spell
I tried to copy Visibility sequence and configure the frames for my model
but it didnt work
Can someone tell me how to do this step by step ?
to mods: if this is wrong section move to the right one please

probably a particle emitter, you can do that in 3dsmax but most likely you do not have that so the other option is oinkerwinkles particle add, at

but the lich already has lightning when it channels.

You want +rep ?

ZOMG TNX OMG LOL FTW WTF
Conversation: They are not particles. Try to avoid answering questions that you dont know anything about them.

what the hell is that supposed to mean? i was trying to help and from the sound of it you wanted a particle emitter. or you could probably use a special effect or animated texture.

no need to act like a jerk.

I mean you should check what is on lich's hands before posting
anyway sorry for my existance

i just did, its an animated texture. the channeling and attack of it are lightning. so i don't really see the point of adding a lightning orb to his hand, you probably wont see it.

its not animated it has changing visibility anyway
its for ariels
