you must munge the msh somehow and put the munged files into the effectfolder where your effect is stored, then you can load it. if you put i into your worlds meshfolder you should find it in the build\worlds\yourworld folder if i remember correctly

I don t want to create an effect , i want that my custom fx geometry is the explosion without creating an effect for it because i want my custom fx geometry for effect .
