Instal instructions:

extract to your MODS folder.

You need BombBayDoorPlus mod to have this mod working.
if you haven't have bombbaydoor Plus you need to download it here:
viewtopic.php?f=18&t=10234

You can use PAT smoke mod, but you should delete any controls linked to activating or even changing smoke.
the game will CRASH when you hit one of those buttons.

This mod needs to be on the top of the mods folder I think, since plutonium also needs to be on the top.

tested:
tested with and created in U.I. 1.1 V4.09B1M

conf.ini:
Only use effects=0 or effects=1 in conf.ini
effects=2 can cause texture flickering bugs.

this is my first effect mod.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

This effect mod is based on plutonium effect mod from Holy Grail, Potenz and Wolfighter.

I also used effects from socorrista.

I also used 1 effect from AFX_Revolution_V09

This effect mod is less FPS friendly as plutonium mod,
except with napalm.
