I tried making a "3d" view of a AIM-120 rocket in SF, works like if it were a ship! So I tried making simple gradient glows for the PlasmaTorp/Stinger/Disruptors, same result.

I guess we can now show what the weapon REALLY looks like instead of a small 16x16 (or smaller) image?

To make this, make a new 96x96 256 bitmap and draw/render anything that weapon looks like. Name the bitmap to whatever the missile is called in SF and add "-3" (EX: sf-d-pl-3.bmp)

Below is the "glow image" of a Pirate "Rapid II"
