Description
A special thank-you to everyone who has supported this small mod that I threw together in a few minutes, I never would have imagined something like this becoming as popular as it is, and for that I am very grateful.

Latest Update:
As there has been only one different style for the loot beams (a rather ugly one imo) and they are a pain to code, styling has been completely removed. They might not ever return, but I'll keep the assets around in case I ever find a better approach to beam/glow styles. Sorry for the two people who liked the arrow style.

Gives items Borderlands-style loot beams, with the colors corresponding to their rarity. That's about as simple of a description as you can get.
Yes, I know the beams of light on items were popularized by Diablo, I just had Borderlands as my main source of inspiration for the effect.

The mod is fairly configurable, there's a minimum rarity and value of items required for loot beams to appear, a whitelist and blacklist system, and even a way to customize the beam colors for specific items.

If you're using Calamity alongside this mod, I highly recommend also using the Calamity Rarities mod, which can be found here: https://test-steamproxy.haloskins.io/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2853817477

If you have a bug to report or would like to contribute, consider checking out the mod's github repository: https://github.com/Nobelium-Uranium/LootBeams

I will check them again, though they shouldn't have been altered. Then again, some of my other mods were acting strangely, but they fixed themselves.

Check your configs and see if something is awry, usually when loot beams don't appear it's likely because it was configured that way.

The mod suddenly stopped working for me outright, I hadn't introduced any new mods and the problem persists even if I disable all other mods. Pretty sad, I liked this mod.

Oh, you're right! I'm sorry. I don't have notification for researched items, i actually never noticed that.

I've actually used Loot Beams with Rare Drop Notification, and it works for me, maybe check your configs?

For some reason doen't work with Rare Drop Notification

Oh, okay, thanks.

Well there's no way to configure category-wide loot beams, however it may be helpful to know that most blocks (except for ores) are either of a very low rarity and/or no sell value, so if you don't want (most) blocks to have a beam, set minimum rarity and/or value to at least 1

I need to turn off the beams from the blocks.

That does not clarify the issue whatsoever.
