Completely Clueless At Manual Installation

[AdamTheNerd]

So, I reinstalled  have FFEdit and wanted to manually install a web FX for Spiderman, which I copied from the Spiderman folder into various custom folders (the custom folder in the game's directory, in ffx's directory, in the data directory and in the localsettings/applicationdata directory too!).

I proceeded to follow this tutorial when said FX did not occur, and created multiple "fx_web_ball"s to no avail. There is something I'm doing terribly wrong. Please help!

what tutorial did you follow? It seems like you did a lot of unnecessary stuffage and need to start from square one. Each fx should come with a readme that tells you specifically how to set each one up. However, if it doesn't have one, use the one below as a guideline.
