This is Firey Explosion Mod for Supreme Commander Forged Alliance. Well, I guess that it's quite obvious what this mod does. I tried to make explosions look more eye-candy while retaining some realism. This is my first attempt to make a mod, so there are still some features I would like to add, but dunno how. Anyway, this mod only alters effects, so it shouldn't clash much with gameplay mods such as 4th Dimension or Experimental Wars.

Description
A bit improved version of the water explosion.
Is that a mod for those textures on that battleship? Or some in-game settings. If its in-gae settings can you put the options to get that result :D
Actually, this is a shader mod. It wasn't developed by me, and I'm not sure I could include it into my mod as it requires some messing with the game files, but it works wonders. Really makes the game shine...quite literally

Here's the link to the site, or rather, forum, where I found it. Keep in mind, the connection is kinda dodgy sometimes, it took me four tries to get there.
Lol. How would I put the mesh.fx in the effects.scd?
Well, .scd files are just .rar (or .zip, not sure) archives with renamed extensions. So, what you should do is make a backup copy of effects.scd (just in case) and move it somewhere else (keeping it with the rest of the .scd files might give problems). Then, open the original effects.scd with WinRar, find the mesh.fx file inside and overwrite it with the downloaded one (just dragging and dropping should do the trick). Now, the shaders won't work until you delete the cache data. ("yourname\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\cache").
So, move everything inside somewhere else (again, just in case), and then it should work.
