ToolsFL
something like that is the name of a folder inside your main BFBuilder folder
In there 'some where' are two executable files and one is named something about effects.
(sorry don't remember the name right now)
If you have the proper files in the right place, you can open that effect program and make your own effects!
There is info on this a few places, like the SWBF modders tutorial and
an updated for the exe at the secretsociety website.
When you browse through which effect you want to watch in the effect editor, those are all the files that ship with the game and if you find one you like, copy the name into your explosion.

Hope this helps
