Making a weapon and I want to change the decal damage effects when fireing, but I can't seem to find where they are linked to in any tags. I'm over looking something I know but can anyone spoon feed me this info?

I dont understand the decal damage part, but I think you mean decal AND damge, corret?
in the projectile down neer the botem is a impact damage effect, up a bit is a exploding effect area for things like rockets. the decals are caused by effects on eacj materal, down at the botem, you see the list of differnt types of impace? make them the effect you want that has the decal you want, or extra damage you want, disaper setings is to make only impact damage work, reflect is impact damage and it reflects, explode is it explodes and impat damge, attach is it attachs and impact damage

Thanks but, I mean when firing the weapon there is a flash of a decal (at least I was told they are decals) for instance when you fire the assault rifle it quickly flashes a decal of fireing. These tag links are what I can't seem to find anywhere

you mean the particals and light that spawn when fired, thats down in the weapon tag in firing effects, just change the firing effect so it can have what ever flash and particals you want
(if you have any other questions, try to make them clearer, ok?)

Decals are something else.
Go at the bottom it should say firing effects and in the projectile tag look for attachments.

Oh there they are hidden away in particles in the projectile area. Changed the first person ones, but 3rd person still uses the old ones.
