000nate Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 I want to start to create efx files for my maps but am not so sure how. I have the editor I believe you use to make them called effectsed but need some tutorials to get started. Plus everytime I try to open it it gives me all these errors.....I'm going to try to reinstall it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 I've never made a working efx file(never made one that I felt was good enough to have any purpose to finish). Is your error "can't find *** for ***** etc. continue receiving message for file?"? I get that and just hit no on each of them and nothing bad happens. The tools come with something that is basically a tutorial about using the particle strip. I figure it out using trial and error and never found any other tutorials.

000nate Posted March 21, 2003 Author Share Posted March 21, 2003 yeah that is the error. And thanks for your help.....Now do you know where I can find some tuturoials to get me started? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted March 22, 2003 Share Posted March 22, 2003 I actually haven't looked yet. I will now and post again if I find one. It's really a lot of trial and error in which you use strips that fit in what you want to make. Someone asked about a large fire-whoever did, I'm sorry I can't remember your screenname. I would look at one of the fires for the strips needed and make everything bigger. 000nate, I will now search. On the topic of EFX files, where is the force fountain thing from the valley of the jedi? I couldn't find it and haven't seen it used yet. I see how to make it basically.

master_thomas Posted March 22, 2003 Share Posted March 22, 2003 Originally posted by Emon Oh, BTW, to fix those stupid things about dirt.jpg, none.jpg, brick.jpg and stucco.jpg, just make a gray JPEG that's like 32x32 pixels, place it in your Tools folder and make copies of it so you have one called dirt.jpg, none.jpg, brick.jpg and stucco.jpg. I think it's for the walls of the little room that it makes, but I don't bother with it. While searching I found this. There goes a bunch of pointless errors. Thanks Emon!
