No problem :smiley: I think I need to use the HSV setting on the colour ramp node more, you can accidentally get trippy chromatic aberration looks by messing around its kind of cool.

Thank you for the file! I’ve been working in Eevee lately because it’s easier on my ancient PC, the third beam actually still appears similar in Eevee. It would be wonderful if the others could be altered or new ones made compatible with it if you ever decide to create more. Looking at your nodes, I can comprehend about half of it, it’s the math stuff that goes over my head. Great job!
