If I want a aura to change colour quickly when the binded button is used, which is better? Engine(client_PreThink) or Fakemeta(FM_PlayerPreThink).
My plug-in doesn't use fakemeta but it's using engine.

EDIT: Does set_user_rendering( id ) remove the glow? Or I need to type out the whole thing?

Does that not answer your question? If you can do it with Engine, and your already using Engine, why include yet another file increasing the size of your plugin to only use one function you already have available to you.

If you're using set_user_rendering(id) it uses the default values. So what does that tell you?

Would be better not to use prethink at all to add a glow effect...
