Custom Explosion Particle?

[Cpl Bradley]

Alright, so i created my particle effect. But how to I replace the standard explosion effect with my new particle effect? Ive seen people do it but I cant figure it out.

Strip out the hardcoded particles from fx_explosion.cpp. Then you'll need:
#include "particle_parse.h" at the start of it with the other includes.
Make a precache somewhere or find an existing one and add PrecacheParticleSystem( "mycustomexplosion" );
and then DispatchParticleEffect( "mycustomexplosion", origin here, angle here; where the particles are normally dispatched.
