ExplosionEffects

[Luke]

Is there a way to get the particle effects of origional weapons explosions?
(i.e. get the particle scripting for the effects from an LGB strike, etc.)
like where its says: "Explosioneffects=BombExplode" in the config.

NOTE!!! that I am not (READ: AM NOT) talking about changing the config,
but finding where this source particle script comes from.

All/any responses appreciated.

Since this has garnered little attention, this is my one (1) and only time I will bump this.

Any response from 'try this,' to 'look here:' to 'it could be there:'
to 'I don't know, maybe this place:' are ALL appreciated!!

Someone please get back to me on this!!

Right I'm not sure this is right but if you open the ca.pbo (use Eliteness)You will find some particle effect information there.
Don't know if it helps or not

BEHOLD!

This is EXACTLY what I am looking for!!

Now...

Can any particle and/or config whizzes and/or both decipher what the heck this all means?
