Removing an FX..

[Arasonic]

I've asked before, but now I really want it.
Is there a way to delete an FX?
Or is there any way of using a self setModel(FXhere); and then self delete();?

if PlayFXonTag( fx );
ahg,
StopFxOnTag( fx );
work)

[Arasonic]

if PlayFXonTag( fx );
ahg,
StopFxOnTag( fx );
work)

No idea what you said there, but I don't mean FxOnTag, I mean the playFX version.

EDIT:

FOUND A WAY. SOLVED
WOOOO

Tell, please

An example:

FX = spawnFx(level.spawnGlow["enemy"], loc );
          TriggerFx( FX );
          self thread deleteOnWait(FX, 2.5);}
     }
}

deleteOnWait(thing, sec)
{
    wait sec;
      thing destroy(); //Not sure if this one is needed
 	 thing delete();
}

Thanks, Arasonic - though I found out already by myself :P

The destroy(); is not needed as it only applies to HUD elements.

Hehe, thought so, but had an error yesterday so had it there just in case.
Quite funny how you found it without my help though, how'd you find it?

I had a list of CoD4 functions, so I was experimenting with every one of them which seemed acceptable. I tried spawning a FX model, which failed - then I tried playing an FX on the model, which failed again. After numerous tries with several other stuff, I came across SpawnFX() which didn't do anything at all so I tried TriggerFX() with SpawnFX() and it worked

FX_Test()
{
self endon("stop_fx");
for(;
{
playFx(fx);
wait 1;
}
}
stopFx()
{
self notify("stop_fx");
}
