kg-7, I did what you said, I think step by step but get an error: Temporarily Copying Data from MOD directory to RAW directory... Error: Unable to find sp\fraggrenade in your MOD dir, possibly a type-o in your FF csv? Error: Unable to find explosions\grenadeExp_concrete_1JPBig.efx in your MOD dir, possibly a type-o in your FF csv? In my Mod folder I have: Mods\J\ weapons\sp\fraggrenade Mods\J\ fx\explosions\grenadeExp_concrete_1JPBig.efx z_modwarfare.iwd Which contains fx\explosions\ grenadeExp_concrete_1JPBig.efx and weapons\sp\ fraggrenade Not sure this is needed but. . . My csv: weapons,sp\fraggrenade fx,explosions\grenadeExp_concrete_1JPBig.efx I also get the following error: WARNING: bad type 'weapons'. fx/explosions/grenadeexp_concrete_1jpbig.efx.efx not found ERROR: failed loading 'explosions/grenadeexp_concrete_1jpbig.efx' of type 'fx' The fx is one I opened, and then saved as. I Modified the grenade to use the new fx and even ran the converter to update the zone. Is there anything here that looks fishy, or that I totally have done wrong? Your instructions are very clear so I am thinking it is me.

first of all, you dont put the .efx on the end of the fx names dont worry about the Error: Unable to find sp\fraggrenade in your MOD dir, possibly a type-o in your FF csv? messages, as long as the file is the right place in the raw folder what i do it put them all in a iwd, then copy it to the main folder, then build the ff

Yea, still get the missing fx in game. If I leave the csv alone (blank as created) I do not get the error messages, but still missing fx error. thanks though. by the way, not sure what copying the iwd to the main would do, although I tried it.

Got the thing to work temporarly by replacing the the original fx with mine and keeping the orig fx name. For some reason I do not yet know, it will not work with my fx and my fx name. It will only work with the original fx name. Still need to play, but making headway. Thanks to all for the input and help!!!!!!!!!!
