Silverhawk2000 Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 I have tried to get the program 'EffectsEd' working so that I can preview the special particle (etc) effects in Jedi Knight. No Success. I was able to bypass the first 'none.jpg' error thanks to a previous post by Leslie Judge. - Apparently there are 4 jpg files missing. Just create 4 basic jpgs with the names dirt.jpg none.jpg stucco.jpg brick.jpg I extracted all the files from assets0.pk3 and put them in a folder In the preferences I pointed the EffectsEd path to that folder. When I try to open the basic beam.efx for example, I get something along the lines of Could not load env/blah/blah/whitebeam (I am not at home right now so I don't have the exact error message) I am sure many others have also had this problem. If you have been able to successfully use EffectsEd, please let me know exactly what you did to get it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie Judge Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 I extracted the assets0.pk3 into GameData\base. And I gave the path <JK2dir>\GameData\base as game path for EffectsEd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leslie Judge Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 lol, even I can't find where I post a solution for that. There is a thread where Emon tells the solution. Make four jpgs (none.jpg, brick.jpg, stucco.jpg and dirt.jpg) and place them into the directory where effectsed.exe is. I made four 32x32 grey jpgs.

Silverhawk2000 Posted March 25, 2003 Author Share Posted March 25, 2003 Thanks Leslie, I'll try that solution some time this week and I'll get back with the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauser Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Hey Silver!! From one Canadian to another---> I'm trying to do the same thing. EffectsED is strangly disturbing. I will try the things you guys have posted and reply back within the hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get a lot of time to Play around on my PC once I get home from work. Usually it's a Friday night or weekend thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverhawk2000 Posted March 28, 2003 Author Share Posted March 28, 2003 Hey Leslie, Thanks that worked. I guess that the EffectsEd has to have all the resources it needs along side the game engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
