WAC File Issue

[Charger]

Was wondering if anyone is useing a WAC file in multiplay and other players are able to see an effect created by the WAC file such as lightning and thunder. As host I can see and hear the effect but player's can not. Would they need to have the WAC file as well in order for it to work properly or am I just shooting in the dark with this?

Blue, I know you will have an answer for me so fork it over bro...anyone one else...I'm listening as well! :cool2:

You are correct Charger. WAC file effects are not seen by anyone but the server unless the player joining the game also has the same map ( same name and wac file). However, vehicular movement seems to be an exception to this.

BTW, if the wac file is not packed, the /s /d need to be added to DFBHD shortcut. :)
