What engine are you hoping to accomplish this in? And do you mean that you want the projectiles to glow, or do you just want for there to be a coloured flash when the weapon is fired, like how there is a dim white flash when firing some of Doom's original weapons?

By the way, this is a topic for the "Doom Editing" forum and not the XWE forum.

You can either use ACS scripts bound to the weapon attack frames, that would call Fadeto(r,g,b,amount,seconds) function (I don't know, however, if Skulltag supports ACS at all), or you can create a number of power-ups that are active for a second or so, and are given to the player while the gun is shooting. In the code of these powerups you can specify their color.

If you're using GZDoom, then you can use the DOOMDEFs or GLDEFS lump to assign colored lighting to projectiles, the player or other entities.

It certainly does.

I also remember seeing a very clever alias-based script that you could use to create a "rave party" effect in any level, merely by typing the trigger into the console.

I didn't know for sure about ACS, as I never used Skulltag.

He said like when screen flashes when you get shot, that's why I advised powerups.
