Hello all.
I am attempting to add some flies buzzing on my map. I created new looping efx in EffectEd and named it "buzzing_flies"
Created a script_struc in radiant with targetname "flies"
added "fx,misc/buzzing_flies" to my fastfile.
now I know I am supposed to create a (mapname)_fx.gsc but what do I put in it ?
I was shown once before that I need to make a gsc called "mp_flies.gsc" to direct the script to the FX
but cannot remember...none of the tuts show that part
any help would be great

Tutorial here

First, you dont need "script_struct", but "script_origin".
Second, you dont need "targetname", just put the coordinates from script_origin to createfx\mapname_fx.gsc file. Just follow the tutorial.
If you still dont understand, i will make a code and explain it for you.

the wrong script node would certainly do it lol
Will try in a while and see how I get on.
PS
the tut link seems dead - "redirect fail" but that might be on MO's side

Thanks

Zeep

If I find the tut can I use the method as before and just use the node over and over again?

For the tut just go on google and search for "CoD4 effect on map". There is one for rain and thunder on codjumper, with everything explained.
Yes, you can use it over and over again, just clone and move the script_origin to the position you want the effect to be, make a new effect section in createfx\mapname_fx.gsc and put those new coordinates in it.

Ok here, now i have the time so i'll explain.
This is how you make an effect on your map.

This goes to raw/maps/createfx/mp_yourmapname_fx.gsc
(if you don't have it, create it)
Code:
main()
{
	//effect section
	ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "buzzing_flies" ); //effect name
	ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 1184, 2776, 328 ); //effect coordinates (need to be separated with a comma , )
	ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 ); //effect angles
	ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "buzzing_flies"; //effect name
	ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;
	ent.v[ "soundalias" ] = "buzzing_flies_sound"; ////effect sound name, if you have it in soundaliases, if not delete this line
	
}


Put this to raw/maps/mp/mp_yourmapname_fx.gsc
Code:
main()
{
	level._effect[ "buzzing_flies" ] 				= loadfx( "misc/buzzing_flies" ); //location of your fx file in fx folder

/#

	if ( getdvar( "clientSideEffects" ) != "1" )
		maps\createfx\mp_yourmapname_fx::main();
#/		

}


This line to your mp_mapname.gsc file in raw/maps/mp, in main, just under _load::main()
Code:
maps\mp\mp_yourmapname_fx::main();


On the picture i attached you can see how to do it in map.
Also you need to add those new files to fast file so do this:

fx,misc/buzzing_flies
rawfile,maps/mp/mp_yourmapname_fx.gsc
rawfile,maps/createfx/mp_yourmapname_fx.gsc

Hope it helped.

OK so I did all you said
create_fx.gsc

main()
{
ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_a" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 3480, -262, 240 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_a";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_a" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 7318, -1088, 14 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_a";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;


ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_a" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 4786, -2518, -70 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_a";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_b" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 1048, -56, 378 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_b";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_b" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 1048, 356, 378 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_b";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_a" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( -884, -9442, 14 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_a";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_a" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 2954, -10268, 240 );
ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_a";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "insects_carcass_flies_b" );
ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 5386, -10474, 378 );

ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "insects_carcass_flies_b";
ent.v[ "delay" ] = -1;

}

fx_gsc
main()
{
level._effect["insects_carcass_flies_a"] = loadfx("misc/insects_carcass_flies_a");



if ( getdvar( "clientSideEffects" ) != "1" )
maps\createfx\mp_103_stony_path_fx::main();


}

gsc
main()
{
maps\mp\mp_103_stony_path_fx::main();
maps\mp\_load::main();
maps\mp\_compass::setupMiniMap("compass_map_mp_103_stony_path");


//setExpFog(500, 3500, .5, 0.5, 0.45, 0);
ambientPlay("amb_chech_night0v2_lr");
//VisionSetNaked( "mp_103_stony_path" );

game["allies"] = "sas";
game["axis"] = "russian";
game["attackers"] = "axis";
game["defenders"] = "allies";
game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland";
game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland";

setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" );

setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".1");
setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".1");
setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".1");
setdvar("compassmaxrange","1500");
}

and updated FF with
fx,misc/insects_carcass_flies_a
fx,misc/insects_carcass_flies_b
rawfile,maps/mp/mp_103_stony_path_fx.gsc
rawfile,maps/createfx/mp_103_stony_path_fx.gsc



still no effects on map (?)

What the hell am I doing wrong lol

right :)


in your gsc add this :

main()
{
maps\mp\mp_103_stony_path_fx::main();
maps/createfx/mp_103_stony_path_fx::main();
maps\mp\_load::main();
maps\mp\_compass::setupMiniMap("compass_map_mp_103_stony_path");
