Particles and VFX
Guides for Deadlock ability effects: recolor an ability's particles, or build a new effect, while keeping every effect as easy to see as the original.
Particle mods change how ability effects look in your own game. Keep them as readable as the originals: never brighter, bigger, fainter, or removed. Read What's allowed and how to stay safe before you start.
What do you want to do?
Recolor ability effects
Intermediate
Start here. Give an ability's effects new colors, for example to match your
skin. Find the particles with dumpparticlelist, recolor them in the
Particle Editor or vpcf-editor, then compile and pack.
Make a new particle effect
Advanced
Build your own effect in the Particle Editor and play it in place of an existing one. Learn recolors first.
