Spiral
![](/wiki/images/f/fb/HLS_PixelPlaneEditor_MegaTree_SpiralControl.png)
A Spiral effect creates the look of a spiral of lights twisting around the tree.
The Options to customize the Spiral Effect:
- Rotate Clockwise: change rotation direction.
- Speed of Rotation: How fast should the spirals rotate (lower numbers mean faster).
- Number of Bars: The number of bars to spiral. Each additional bar will add a new color (max 6). Additional bars after that will repeat the color additions.
- Width of Bars: How wide the bars should be.
- Spiral Spacing: How much space should there be between each spiral.
- Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
Vertical Bars
![](/wiki/images/5/55/HLS_PixelPlaneEditor_MegaTree_VerticalBars.png)
A Vertical Bar effect creates vertical bars that rotate around the tree.
Options to Customize a Vertical Bar Effect:
- Rotate Clockwise: change rotation direction.
- Speed of Rotation: How fast should the bars rotate (lower numbers mean faster).
- Number of Bars: The number of bars to rotate vertically. Each additional bar will add a new color (max 6). Additional bars after that will repeat the color additions.
- Width of Bars: How wide the bars should be.
- Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
Horizontal Bars
![](/wiki/images/2/27/HLS_PixelPlaneEditor_MegaTree_HorizontalBars.png)
A Horizontal Bar effect creates horizontal bars that rotate up or down the tree.
Options to Customize a Horizontal Bar Effect:
- Motion Down: Move bars down instead of up.
- Speed of Rotation: How fast should the bars move up/down (lower numbers mean faster).
- Width of Bars: How wide the bars should be. This will also determine the number of bars that appear on the object.
- Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
Snow
![](/wiki/images/2/29/HLS_PixelPlaneEditor_MegaTree_Snow.png)
A Snow effect creates random "snowing" pixels that float down the tree.
Options to Customize a Snow Effect:
- Speed of Rotation: How fast should the snow fall (lower numbers mean faster).
- Snow Density: How dense the snowfall should be.
- Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
- Accumulate Snow: As snow falls, have it accumulate at the bottom of the tree.
- Snow White: Sets all accumulated snow as white, no matter what color it was when falling.
Meteor
![](/wiki/images/0/0c/HLS_PixelPlaneEditor_MegaTree_Meteor.png)
A Meteor effect creates random meteors that streak down the tree.
Options to Customize a Meteor Effect:
- Speed of Rotation: How fast should the meteors fall (lower numbers mean faster).
- Tail Length: Length of the tail on the meteor.
- Meteor Density: How dense the "meteor field" should be.
- Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
Fireworks
![](/wiki/images/6/6d/HLS_PixelPlaneEditor_MegaTree_Fireworks.png)
A Firework effect creates fireworks that streak down the tree.
Options to Customize a Firework Effect:
- Speed of Rotation: How fast should fireworks come (lower numbers mean faster).
- Tail Length: Length of the tail of the firework.
- Fireworks: Firework density.
- Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
