[Help!] Effect Editor

Post by Desertfox »

So I have been fooling around with the effect editor a bit, pretty fun except for the fact that my knowledge of how to use it is just what I read in a CRYSIS tutorial :) Couldn't find any for the BFEditor :/ Anyways, couple of questions for anyone that knows :D


-How do I create a new effect (So far I can only find out how to edit an existing one)

-Are the ones located in Muzzle Flashes > Emitter the proper one for guns/vehicles etc? Because I know there are a couple A-10 ones.

-How do I find out what effect a certain gun is using?

-How do I make it track something? Like after I fire how do I have the smoke keep originating out of the barrel and not where the shot was fired?

-If I attach a supply object to the shoulderblast and give it damage speed, will it damage people who are in its radius?



Thanks ahead of time :)





EDIT: Found out what effect's gun use,

ObjectTemplate.addTemplate e_muzz_shoulderfiredrocket
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 0.0169145/-0.00720508/0.425885

from the tweak, my problem was I was searching "effect" instead of the effect name so I couldn't find the line =P Guess this also answers which effect's are the right ones :) I will leave the questions up just incase someone searches though.

New problem :( I did my AT backblast, saved it and went ingame but its still the same as the old one? I check the tweak and its still the same as the old one but in the editor its different?
