🌈 Hello friend! Would you like recolored spell VFX for your mod? ðŸŒˆ


If you need recolors of spells I already have, please let me know! Happy to look into other spells also.

Vlad's Grimoire supplies recolored VFX, but it's main focus involves creating custom spell templates. I partner closely with modders to create uniquely layered animations which result in spell effects that feel completely new and original.

My current specialties are:
  • Over 50 versions of Eldritch Blast.
  • A growing number of custom PrepareEffects.
  • A large color palette for each animation series, up to 20.

You may also want to consider VFX Library by Shivero who has a large assortment recolored spells. He does amazing work and you should check out his resource as well. Both libraries can be used separately or together, depending on what animations you require.





LATEST NEWS

The catalog now contains 144 custom VFX files and 13 unique custom templates. It also includes:

  ➤  58 custom beams, along with templates for Eldritch Blast for each
  ➤  16 custom magic missiles + 16 impact effects
  ➤  35 custom status effects
  ➤  19 custom miscellaneous effects

Most effects have pre-built templates you can use. I've also included the EffectResourceGuid info so that you can build your own animation templates.

If you need help building templates, reach out to me on Discord!


WOULD YOU LIKE TO USE MY CUSTOM ANIMATION TEMPLATES?

New animations have been recorded in the matrix here: VFX Catalog (new).

Images will be transitioned out of the VFX Catalog (old) soon. Check the new catalog for the most up-to-date UUIDs.

Feel free to dive into the file and set my mod as a requirement. Contact me on Discord under the same SN if you have questions!


DETAILS - VFX LIBRARY

This mod contains new spell icons and changes to spell animations using custom templates and recolored VFX files.

This mod itself does not make any direct changes to the game. It's a centralized repository of assets and visual effect instructions that interact with other spell mods, informing the game engine how to implement graphical enhancements to the game.


DETAILS - LEGACY COLOR CALCULATOR

Spoiler:  
Show
This tool is a simpler alternative to the set of python scripts provided by VFX Auto Color Changer by Shivero.

This is my original legacy version which provides direct control over color. For some users, the spreadsheet tool may also be easier to use.

  • The package includes a .xlsm (macro-enabled) file.
  • A locally installed version of Excel is highly recommended for either of these versions as it is a hefty file and few programs can run it like Excel.
  • Offers full color changes in up to 19 specific color palettes, plus up to 4 custom palettes as defined by the user.



INSTALLATION

Place this mod before other mods that require it.
