Can you apply the disintegration effect to lightsabers? If so, how can I do it?

The disintegration effect I'm talking about is in the disrupter rifle. I want to apply it's effect to lightsabers if it's possible. The game in question I'm trying to mod is Jedi Academy.

It's possible, but it will require programming. You'll have to find the code responsible for the disruptor disintegration, and re-use the relevant parts of it for lightsaber kills.

Alright, where in the game files do I find them?

It wouldn't be as simple as changing a line in a file in a pk3, you'd need to make the changes to the game code itself and recompile to use a new .exe file completely. If you aren't familiar with coding at all it may be a bit advanced. If you do, it's recommended to use OpenJK's code as a baseline. Compile instructions are in the readme. Maybe someone can point you to where the exact code is but implementing it for a different weapon will be quite involved.

So I download OpenJK, then what?
