>>>> my _fx.gsc <<<<


main()
{
level thread precacheFX();
level thread spawnWorldFX();
}

precacheFX()
{
level._effect["building_fire_med"] = loadfx ("fx/fire/building_fire_med.efx");
level._effect["damaged_vehicle_smoke"] = loadfx ("fx/smoke/damaged_vehicle_smoke.efx");
}

spawnWorldFX()
{

//fire
maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("building_fire_med", (481.0 -813.0 -76), 2);


//smoke
maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("damaged_vehicle_smoke", (481.0 -813.0 -76), 0.6);
}

Please post your custom fx GSC - then we might be able to see why you are getting the error.

There is the reason - you have position before delay time.

Try this instead:

	//fire
	firefx = playerloopfx( level._effect["building_fire_med"], 2, (481.0, -813.0, -76) );
	
	//smoke 
	smokefx = playloopfx( level._effect["damaged_vehicle_smoke"], 0.6, (481.0, -813.0, -76) );

thak you mr. demonseed for all your help
