Weapon expl.tbl

Revision information.. weapons.cpp

3.6.x branch: 2.180.2.24

3.7 branch: 2.209

Originally, weapon_expl.tbl recorded the number of LODs for each explosion image.

Regardless, when FS2 searches for additional LODs, it will use the animation with the specified name for LOD0, and then use "NAME_#" for additional LODs.

• Example: ExpMissileHit1.eff (LOD 0), ExpMissileHit1_1.eff (LOD1)
