Darkplaces effectinfo and QC - how?

I created new fire and smoke effects, but I was working on a CSQC installation I found on the web, and I just replaced the functions, see where they appeared and I replicated that.

Let me search inside the source, and I'll come up with something you might use. It'll take a couple of days, though.

Check out my Vimeo channel for the smoke and fire tests:

EDIT: I might say that this effect http://www.vimeo.com/6994514 is using two effectinfo.txt effects, placed one above the other.

It's pretty simple to do it, the hard part comes when tweaking and trying to make it look real.

I know, it is an old thread, that I just bumped.
Sorry for that.

But using "effectinfo.txt" very much for all of my mods, I always asked myself if there is a way to create custom effect names.

I was aware of "dpextensions.qc"´s: DP_SV_POINTPARTICLES, but never really fully understood and got it to work.

Now that LordHavoc himself explaines it with a nice example, I was finally able to create custom effects and use it in QC.

Thank you very much LordHavoc !

I am sure, that this is very interesting+helpful for many other DP modders as well.

Best wishes,
