I have a thing about special effects. Both the snow and the ice shard death is also based on actor size by the way.

Oh and this probably counts as a hack too. By comparing the point of a hitscan puff or impacting projectile relative to the center of a victim, I could spawn a 3d model sphere with a few frames of manual texture animation to make a shield bubble effect.

There's a lot of untapped potential in model primitives like planes and spheres for SFX.

Got it working! I'm not usually one to brag, but turned out cool as shit.
