Hey again, stupid question really.

Once compiled the breakable windows have an effect applied to them

(glassbreak) from the Breakable windows with no scripting tutorial, however once its compiled i get this error:



"Missing Fx"

I dont understand if im missing it or it doesnt exist?

That effect does not exist. Because the tutorial is for CoD and not for CoD2. Open the iw_07.iwd file and find another effect.

Dammit, cant find one in any of the folders which remotely resembles glass breaking...

Anybody have any suggestions as to which ones would be ok for Windows breaking?

I found 2 efx that remotely resembled glass;

large_glass
small_glass

in the impacts folder, however these do not display a breaking window effect ingame. Any other options?

Do you think if i added the efx from CoD1 it would work? And then i can just add it into my .iwd later on?

EDIT: Tried adding the FX from CoD1 and it didnt work unfortunately, so any other ideas :/?

Try writing your own effect.

Open on of the stock effects to see how an effect is made. (And compare it to the CoD1 effect).

The reason the effect from CoD1 didn't work is most likely the fact you only used the .efx file and not the texture file(s) used in that effect.

No idea how to make my own effect...

Is there any other pre-fx that would be good for windows?
