Weapon Effects

ok, so I've figured out how to create new weapons, add them into game with infocards, change stats around, change rgb color values and ect.

I attempted to change around the effects of my weapons in weapons_ale.ini in the fx/weapons folder. I copied the Mattertheif's effect for one of my guns, and I removed the
textures = fx\hexagon.txm
line from the weapon's entry... so I go ingame and test.. those damned hexagons are STILL there. I even tried removing ALL the effects from the entry in weapons_ale.ini, yet they are ALL still there!

I have correctly referenced the files in effects.ini (or atleast I beleive) but the hexagons + other effects are still there...

Any help? If you wish, ill post the weapon's entries...

If you look in the weapon effects folder, you'll see a number of .ale files. Note that I do not mean weapon_ale, which is an ini file. These ale files dictate what the weapon effects actually look like, except in cases like the Justice where it's just a beam entry. These files are apparently Avid Log Exchange, or something similiar. You need specialist software to edit them. If you're really interested, check out www.avid.com

hmm, well I read a weapons tutorial and it said that you just add/delete the line for the txm... ok well there goes that idea lol

heres the tutrial.. http://www.lancersreactor.com/t/downloa ... asp?id=917

"Here is a list of effects you can add on, add the entire line i paste in to add the effect, keep in mind too many effects could slow down or freeze the game, 8 is probably a safe number.

textures = fx\planetflare.txm
textures = fx\sarma.txm
textures = fx\standardeffects.txm
textures = fx\miningship.txm
textures = fx\hexagon.txm
textures = fx\lightbeam.txm
textures = fx\planetflare.txm
textures = fx\smoke.txm
textures = fx\beam.txm
textures = fx\photon.txm
textures = fx\newglows.txm
textures = fx\sidedistortion.txm
textures = fx\debrisdust.txm
textures = fx\ice.txm
textures = fx\rain.txm
textures = fx\missleeffect.txm
textures = fx\kioncannon.txm
textures = fx\lightbeam.txm
textures = fx\metallic.txm
textures = fx\lightning2.txm
textures = fx\organism.txm
textures = fx\storm.txm
textures = fx\snow.txm
textures = fx\animated.txm
textures = fx\holomap.txm

Once again, just paste them under effect_crc."
