Yes m8 everything is in there:

main()
{
level.snoweffect = loadfx("fx/weather/snowfallfor5seconds.efx");
snowmitters = getentarray("snow","targetname");
delay = 5;
initialoffset = 0;
for(i=0;i {
snow thread snowblow(delay,initialoffset);
if(initialoffset < 5)
{
initialoffset += .2;
}
else
initialoffset = 0;

}
}

snowblow(delay,initialoffset)
{
wait initialoffset;
while(1)
{
playfx (level.snoweffect,self.origin);
wait delay;
}

}


and

main()
{


maps\mp\_load::main();

maps\mp\snow_effects::main();


game["allies"] = "american";
game["axis"] = "german";

game["american_soldiertype"] = "airborne";
game["american_soldiervariation"] = "winter";
game["german_soldiertype"] = "waffen";
game["german_soldiervariation"] = "winter";

game["attackers"] = "allies";
game["defenders"] = "axis";



}


and the FX you submitted


Thanks again

Jay

Hey Rasta i added the script_origins to my map and did the necessary scripting and when i tested the map it crashed while it was loading

Hi again....dunno if this is the problem....i had a look in my PK.5 in my main and couldnt find Weather in the FX and no EFX for snow...any help please...thanks guys

Regards

To be honest guys this is such an old thread from years ago, since which i have redone the script to make it much more suitable for all maps. Try this following:
To prevent lagg and the game draw efx over the whole map, we are going to 'spawn' the rain or snow in front of the actual player.

First you need to create a new .gsc file, and then your need the following script, so just copy and paste it into the new .gsc:

main()

{
     level thread rasta_rain();
}


rasta_rain() 
{    
zufall = RandomInt(100);        
while(1) 
{
players = getentarray("player", "classname");        
if(players.size > 0) 
{
max_nodes         = 20;
max_nodes_per_player     = max_nodes/players.size;
for(ii=0;ii<max_nodes_per_player;ii++) 
{ 
for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++) 
{
player = players[i];
if(isAlive(player)) 
{
x= 350-randomfloat(700);
y= 350-randomfloat(700);                    
pos = player.origin +(x,y,200) ;                        
trace = bulletTrace(pos,pos +(0,0,-250), true, undefined);
if(trace["fraction"] != 1) playfx(level.rasta_rain,trace["position"]);                

wait 0.05;

}                        
}
}                    
}

wait 0.05;
}    
}

Now lets save this as rain.gsc

2) Next step is to load the rain or snow effects, so somewhere in 'yourmap.gsc' add the following line:

level.rasta_rain   = loadfx("name of effects");

You will also need to add another line to 'yourmap.gsc'

      maps\mp\rain::main();
