Heeeeey, it’s me! Yeah, trails can be a bit strange but they’re a lot more straight forward over all. If you want the sword slash that I got here: Resource: sword-swing animation
I didnt really follow any tutorials to make this effect, simply looked at sword slashes that were already made to understand them then worked from there. The trails are essentially just a collage of different noises layered onto each other with masks with particle effects to help emphasize the effect they have.
You can also look to Luos’s tutorial, the one Veer just posted (you quick lad), and use that to get an understanding of animtrails. They are pretty simple over all.
Here’s an example of the main portion of the fire trail, the brightest and quickest part of it. https://i.imgur.com/ZrbVs7A.png
