So you mean change the flag base into a fire?

Im sure you can just inject the fire into the map, then change the scenery tag from flag base to fire.

i tried to swap the shaders that are one the map already and nothing showed up. hopfully this will work, ill post the findings after i try.


EDIT:
small tut:

1. open elongation in insolence.
2. open the map you want the fire on, i used backwash.
3. in elongation got tto the scen tag and drag and drop what fire you want to backwash.
4. after it transfers, open backwash in dothalo.
5. go to the scen tag, find the fire and select the meta.
6. copy and paste the fire meta over what you want it to replace.(i replased the flag base in front of both bases.)
7. save changes and resign map.
8. ftp to your xbox.

thats easy....i did it all over this mod. Just swap the itmc of a weapon, or in the scenery tag is the flagbase, just swap the scen tag for the fire....not the shaders

Yes, that works, thats mainly what I did, but I chunk added and used the extra collections to spawn the fires. But clicking the ITMC works too.
