Adding Particles?

I added a particle combination to use on a team weapon and it is not working for some reason. I just put

Code:

<ContainerResources href='WXP_SnowBlast'/>

on the long list, and this

Code:

    <XContainerResourceDetails id='WXP_SnowBlast'>
      <Value href='WXP_SnowBlast-0'/>
      <Name>WXP_SnowBlast</Name>
      <Flags>81</Flags>
    </XContainerResourceDetails>
      <EffectDetailsContainer id='WXP_SnowBlast-0'>
      <EffectNames>WXPF_WhiteoutDelayed</EffectNames>
      <EffectNames>WXP_Rainfall</EffectNames>
      <EffectNames>WXP_JetpackStartRing</EffectNames>
      <EffectNames>WXP_StormClouds</EffectNames>
      <EffectNames>WXP_LightningGlow</EffectNames>
      <EffectNames>WXP_StormDarken</EffectNames>
    </EffectDetailsContainer>

after the last effect. anything wrong?

After this WXP_StormDarken ?

I need to add something after WXP_StormDarken?

I went through you code and there are no errors. I didn't do this for quite a long time, but on your list only WXP_Rainfall is not an effect. Maybe that's the reason. However. let me test it. Did you assign it with weapon explosion ?

i assigned it with weapon launch for the team weapon

This is how it looks for me.
It works. But if you want all white and similar, you have to edit effects that cause it.

thats for the explosion. i put if for the LaunchFx for the team weapon

So it doesn't work when you Launch it. I'll check it .

exactly. i dont know if there is something wrong with the Local.XML, because on DentonationFx i have the Starburst explosion and that doesnt work either. But the AerialFx DOES work. :/

I only found in Weaptwk.xml

<LaunchSfx> not <LaunchFX>
It is sFX file, meaning it has specific values like

BowRelease
RocketRelease
SheepBaa

...

So you can only assign it to FX containers I believe.

I want to use it in Local.XML not Weaptwk.XML.
It's for my team weapon

I just tried it in Local.xml with other effect and it still doesn't work.
I believe you can't put that in LaunchFx. I'll check it more tomorrow Maybe certain effects can be placed.

I tried removing some effects but it won't work.

what effects can you put in LaunchFx?

Last time I was searching in Local.xml for <LaunchFx> I didn't found anything in there, or to be more specific, in ones Team 17 made ( default team weapons ).
But, there must be something that goes there . We'll find something probably.

It is there. right below the gun apperance options and right above AerialFx

Yeah I know that it is there. But I mean, the value inside the <LaunchFX> This : ) </LaunchFX>
I didn't find anything.

oh haha ok. well if it is there, its for a reason. im just not sure why none of the particles are working :/

I was thinking of doing this

<LaunchFX> <DetonationFX>WXP_SNOWBALL </DetonationFX> </LaunchFX>

but I am not sure would that work . I'll try it tomorrow.

Other option is, change <LaunchFX> to <LaunchSfx> and put values that are located in Weaptwk.xml like

sheepbaa
RocketRelease
BowRelease and similar.

...

or there must be something ( some values ) for <LaunchFx> as you said.

im gonna look in the team 17 forums

Well Snowy The Effects Doesn't work in detonation and launch lines if u added a effect , i had the same problem only in Ariel Line works But in weapttwk file if u wanted to tweak a weapon u can set an effect in all 3 lines launch and detonation they will work unfortunately in local.xml file the effects doesn't work in launch or detonation lines
i don't know why

yea I see that now
