Well for my mod, I would like new bullet explosions. I felt inspired to make one because of Ultimate Clone Wars.

If you have an effect, you need to edit these lines in your weapon's ord odf:
Code: Select all
ImpactEffectSoft = "effectname"
ImpactEffectRigid = "effectname"
ImpactEffectStatic = "effectname"
ImpactEffectTerrain = "effectname"
ImpactEffectWater = "effectname"
ImpactEffectShield = "effectname"
ExpireEffect = "effectname"
For bullets or lasers, you should leave ImpactEffectWater as "com_sfx_watersplash_ord" to make it splash when it hits the water.

Depends on the weapon, you can see it in the weapons _ord.ODF (see Xavious's post)

under data_abc/common/effects are a large majority of the default effects. other effects can be found under side, world effects folders, etc.
