Change misc NS turret Blaster Shoot Fx

[Asgarath83]

Hello. I need a little help. i am diving by days on SP code.

For fix a little crash issue i need to change the FX of blaster projetctile of NS turret, (the turrets that shoots by ceiling... an example of these are on T3_byss map and on Vjun3. ) they use as default the blaster rifle EFX. i see if i change FX_blaster.CPP effects it change also the turret efx. but it's not what i want.

i desire that the ns_turret make his custom shooting effect, like the floor turrets.

i need to find where is the part of SP code when NS turret get his muzzle flast, shoot efx and impact efx. D: there is some place of code when is setted that NS_TURRET use the blaster rifle FX. i wanna to change this part.

Someone know where is coded that?

 

never mind. find it on g_turret.cpp.

Fixed, now works like the emplaced gun
