Well i made a new animated 22 frame effect for when you "hit shields" (like when you bombard forcefields) Theres 2 versions even. v1 very bright and "consolidated" and v2 (sort of faint wavy tentacles extending from the hit, and less bright than v1)
This replaces the "swirly" green round stuff which i think looks kinda weird from distant zoom - with this, when you bombard a forcefield it will either light up massively (v1) or considerably (v2) and look way more interesting.

The Attachment has both V1 and V2, but personally i would advise to use V2 (looks pretty cool, not TOO bright, and very detailed effect too)
InstallationExtract the zip file - inside you find V1 and V2 folders
Copy the PNG files of the version you want (either from V1 OR from V2 folder) to
AIWar\RuntimeData\Images\ShieldMAKE A BACKUP of the files inside, so that you can revert back to the look if you really hate it after all.
Works same with steam of course.
Note that brightness depends on how many ships fire ;P
