Hello! I have a problem that I need a admins help of to solve. Today I bought 4 gold bars, and I spent 2 on magic dust. After that I crafted the magic dust and 1 gold bar and I got a Rare Magic Dust effect:Scary Storm, I crafted the Rare Magic Dust again with a gold bar to get a tier 1 effect and it gave me smoking.  :(

The Wiki says "Combining a Magic Dust with one Gold Bar in the Crafting Bench will give you a Rare Magic Dust which will have have a guaranteed Tier 2 Effect assigned to it. Adding another Gold Bar to the Rare Magic Dust will upgrade the guaranteed Tier 2 effect to a Tier 1 effect." - http://moronyard.com/wiki/index.php?title=Magic_Dust

Smoking is a tier 2 effect - http://moronyard.com/wiki/index.php?title=Rare_Tiers

My steam id is - http://steamcommunity.com/id/therealredline/

I'd be very happy if some admin could contact me and sort this out, Thanks!

Hi, this should have been fixed a while ago. Please let me know which effect you tried to upgrade so I can check the logs and see what went wrong.

As for the effect appearing below you, this is caused by the constant changes to an internal gmod function that scales and positions the effect. There have been several changes as to how the function handles it's arguments, which causes some effects (and models) to appear in weird places. Fortunately, there will be a definitive change in the upcoming patch, at which point I can have a look at all the messy effects / models.
