Here is a simple tutorial on how to add snow effect to you map:

Step1

First you need to create a script_origin


Step 2

Next give that script_origin some values, so press 'n' and type in targetname as the key and snow as the value


Step 3
Ok, now press the space bar to copy the entity and you need to create a whole field of them over the top of your map ( where the snow will fall)


Step 4
Compile your map, and now we will get down to scripting
Make a new .gsc and put this in it (call the .gsc snow_effect.gsc)

Code:

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

Now in your yourmap.gsc (youmap = the name of you map) add this line to the top:

Code:

mapsmpsnow_effects::main();

Step 5

Now to get this to work your need to find the snow fx. The fx your need are called:
snowfall.efx
snowfallfor5seconds.efx

In you pk3 add another folder called fx, and inside that make another folder called weather and put those two fx files in it.

Step 6

That should be about it for them to work, put the pk3 in your main and start as you would any other map.

Happy gaming/mapping
