My createfx file has nothing in it except the fire.. I was testing yours(wiki approach) and his at the same time. Wohoa.. wait, the example I gave is not what I'm talking about here eh.. on my map I am using blowing leaves and dust...My config that works for blowing leaves etc is this... level._effect[ "hallway_smoke_light" ] = loadfx( "smoke/hallway_smoke_light" ); level._effect[ "snow_wind" ] = loadfx( "weather/snow_wind" ); level._effect[ "dust_wind_leaves_chernobyl" ] = loadfx( "dust/dust_wind_leaves_chernobyl" ); level._effect[ "dust_wind_leaves_chernobyl2" ] = loadfx( "dust/dust_wind_leaves_chernobyl" ); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("hallway_smoke_light",(192, -1024, 41), 3); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("snow_wind",(192, -1024, 40), 1); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("dust_wind_leaves_chernobyl",(192, -1024, 42), 1); maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("dust_wind_leaves_chernobyl2",(208, -368, 64), 1); edited on Mar. 5, 2008 10:28 pm by Fluke would it be the same kinda thing for blowing Sand/Dust, just by changeing the FX effects.. Will check on answer tomorrow im off to bed now movie has finsihed.. nite all. ManicKiller You can make your own fx based off the original you are using. The original fx you are using could have different area coverage.. For example, dust I am using with leaves is only covering a 96x96 area or something... so I'd have to put multiple areas or create my own fx based off the original one using the fx editor and increase its diameter... (at least thats my thinking right now)

Lot's of things weren't including in the Tools. I'd like to find the racks in Countdown of missiles as well as those deflectors or radars all around the map. I think until people rip em out we wont see them. I think....

@Fluke -> Look in your prefab and xmodel folders for slamraam and Sa6. If that doesn't turn anything up do a search for missles. ctrl+f is the hotkey for search just in case.

I'll take another gander tonight at it.

The specific models your looking for are Ch_missle_rack and projectile_slamraam_missle. They are both in the xmodel folder and you'll have to add clipping.

Ok Ive tried 3 of these tuts that are all pretty similer and I cant get any of them to work [banghead]

I have managed to get the lightning to work and thats about it. This is my code:

mymap_fx

Code:

main()
{
    level._effect[ "wood" ] = loadfx( "explosions/grenadeExp_wood" );
    level._effect[ "dust" ] = loadfx( "explosions/grenadeExp_dirt_1" );
    level._effect[ "brick" ] = loadfx( 
"explosions/grenadeExp_concrete_1" );
    level._effect[ "coolaidmanbrick" ] = loadfx( "explosions/grenadeExp_concrete_1" );
    level._effect[ "rain_heavy_mist" ] = loadfx( "weather/rain_mp_farm" );
    level._effect[ "lightning" ] = loadfx( "weather/lightning_mp_farm" );
    level._effect[ "cgoshp_drips_a" ] = loadfx( "misc/cgoshp_drips_a" );

   //ambient runners
    level._effect[ "rain_splash_mp_farm" ] = loadfx( "ambient_runners/mp_farm_rain_splash01" );
    level._effect[ "water_noise_ud" ] = loadfx( "ambient_runners/mp_farm_water_noise_ud01" );
    level._effect[ "water_noise" ] = loadfx( "ambient_runners/mp_farm_water_noise01" );

    maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("rain_heavy_mist",(1008, 1952, 3200), 3);
    maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("rain_heavy_mist",(1040, 8752, 3200), 3);
    maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning",(1008, 1952, 3200), 10); 
    maps\mp\_fx::loopfx("lightning",(1040, 8752, 3200), 10);
   
/#

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

}

mymap create fx

Code:

main()
{
			ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "water_noise_ud" );
			ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 0, 0, 0 );
			ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
			ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "water_noise_ud";
			ent.v[ "delay" ] = -15;

			ent = maps\mp\_utility::createOneshotEffect( "water_noise" );
			ent.v[ "origin" ] = ( 0, 0, 0 );
			ent.v[ "angles" ] = ( 270, 0, 0 );
			ent.v[ "fxid" ] = "water_noise";
			ent.v[ "delay" ] = -15;
}
