Do the sound and radiusDamage work? Try playfx(level._effect["flak_artillery",(-204,20,34)); instead of maps\mp\_fx::OneShotfx(level._effect["flak_artillery"],(-204,20,34), 0.3); Also, in your _fx .gsc you only load an effect you also load in your main function in your other .gsc file. Do you have a mp_mymapname.gsc file which calls the gsc files you posted here?

As caretaker said, make sure you are loading you _load.gsc this handles all the main function the script uses. Post your entire .gsc file.

I think that you don't need the file "mp_arty_fx" , since the effect already is "precache" in the "main" of arty.gsc make sure you are usinng the appropriate coordinates. try : playfx(level._effect["flak_artillery"], origin ); on the other hand, I see that you are not using a vector in the third arguments Quote: playfx ( [effect id], [position of effect], [forward vector], [up vector] ); good luck! ;) PD:Excuse my language.

1) Do not copy code, always type it yourself. That way typos (as the one I made) can be avoided. I just now noticed a missing ]. 2) 'bas=d syntax' doesn't help much. Pull down the console and see WHERE the bad syntax happens, it usually tells you the exact line it is happening.

what says Caretaker ,about point 2. it is highly advisable to do . but I have noticed that the bad syntax happens , just an previous line. not exactly same line.
