While perusing the release thread for The Antagonist (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=78402.0), I saw that the creator suggested using nighteye's shockwaves (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=72539.0). That thread says "for 3D shockwaves, drop the appropriate files(shockwave3D-glow) into folder : mediavps_3612/data/maps", but my mediavps_3612/data folder does not have a maps subfolder. Do I just need create the folder, add those, and it will work? Or do I need to edit the MV_Effects.vp file in mediavps_3612, since that also shows several shockwaves files?
Is the installation process similar for MediaZPs_2014?
I got the actual shockwave files (including the EFF file) from this (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=82108.0) thread.
Thanks!

Yes.

No. Under no circumstances edit an existing VP file to add files to it; any loose files in the proper folders will override files in the VP archives anyway.

Should be, AFAIK.
