To run that small flame efx in your map you need two lines in yourmapname.gsc file Code: level._effect["fire"] = loadfx ("fx/props/glow_latern.efx"); Code: maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("fire", (997,1263,408), 0.3); Notice I just happened to call it "fire" you can call it whatever you like edit:- the set of figures in the second line (in the brackets) are the x,y,z coordinates for the effect) edited on Dec. 21, 2006 01:02 pm by DadofAzz
