Better Explosions Pack

Attention!: The graphic effects of particles in this addon are not mine.


I am a developer, therefore the content that belongs to me is the code that gives functionality to these explosions (lua code),

It's a pack of various realistic explosions, some needed for my addon "War Machines NPCs" and "Advanced TRATools".

They will also be added to the normal explosions of the game

Explosions included:
- Rocket Blast (Particle created by The Vman)

- Rocket explosion 2 (with more dust and dirt) (Particle created by The Vman)

-Cinematic Explosion (Author unknown, please if anyone knows the author of this effect let me know, since the effect is very old and has no information about the author)

- Explosion C4 (Lua effect created by Sylph)

- Nuclear Explosion (Particle Author unknown, same request as in the previous explosion)

(highly recommended)
Do you want to have a similar or more difficulty in gmod as you had in HL2, but are you too lazy to configure everything yourself? Here is a small file (Highly Improved) with all likely the proper HL2 settings like NPC HP, Weapons Damage, Explosions Damage, NPC's Damage, etc... which will give your NPC's a higher difficulty to balance fights between them!

Extract rar archive into your garrysmod folder (NOT IN ADDONS FOLDER)
Remember that you can always edit it as you wish if any of the values ​​are not what you want.

Try adding this to your particles_manifest.txt file, it's inside the particles folder
"file" "particles/marine123_moab_fx.pcf"
"file" "particles/explodey.pcf"
"file" "particles/vman_explosion.pcf"
"file" "particles/slv_explosion.pcf"

your game is not loading the particles included in the gma file. This is a common problem with the workshop platform... you will have to manually download the particles and extract them in your particles folder, in your garrysmod folder:

The problem may be due to the game update. Every time the game updates, it replaces the particles_manifest.txt file to its original form, removing the preloaded particles from this mod, so you have to add them back

In order to help you, you must comment all the details, all actions and steps you followed to be able to reproduce the error and also, if it is a lua error leave the error line. all this in the comments. If the information mentioned above is missing, you will be possibly ignored.

All of this work (Lua Code) is my property and you are NOT allowed to use all or part of my source code for another addon (much less upload it to a workshop or another website) without my explicit consent.

Any attempt to use this for another addon will be considered property theft and I will initiate proceedings against that user's Steam account.

When I no longer work on this addon and no longer support it, it will be communicated in the description, and only then can you modify it yourself or use this addon in another addon. while I am supporting this addon you cannot do, be warned.
