You could try using UGX easy FX. It works great for me. http://ugx-mods.com/wiki/index.php?title=Easy-FX

I am using it, but for what I'm doing I need to be able to script it like this.

I think you want:
Code Snippet
Plaintextee1rock = GetEnt("ee1_rock", "targetname");
FXorg = spawn("script_model",self getorigin());
FXorg setmodel("tag_origin);//no need to enablelinkto but you need a tag for playfxontag
FXorg LinkTo(ee1rock);
round_start = get_round(5);
if(round_start)
{
make_laughquake();
ee1clip moveZ(128,20);
ee1rock moveZ(128,20);
wait 10;
PlayFXOnTag(level.effect["hum"], FXorg, "tag_origin" );//Edit: updated mistake

The FX still doesn't play after making those changes. This is what it looks like now in case I managed to mess it up somehow...

I think I missguided you there sorry. Playfxontag should look like this:
If that don't work:
Can you get the fx to play at all? Just like using PlayFx? Did you add it to mod.csv correctly? When you say at the top of your gsc you are using, it is in the init or main function right?
Is your if statement true at this time? Did you try adding a println inside the if to check that the if is working?

PlaintextPlayFXOnTag(level.effect["hum"], FXorg, "tag_origin" );

The FX is being loaded from the init function.
I also tried adding it to PrecacheMyFX in mapname.gsc aswell as making another function that loads before zombiemode main to load it, but none of those worked. I did have iprintlns, and it worked. The code after the fx works fine too.
This is how its added to the mod.csv, im pretty sure its right
Code Snippet
Plaintextfx,maps/zombie/fx_meteor_ambientEdit: tried PlayFX with both of these lines, neither worked:
Code Snippet
Plaintextfx = playFX (level.effect["hum"],self.origin);Code Snippet
Plaintextfx = playFX (level.effect["hum"],ee1rock.origin);- MakeCents

Hmmmm.. Seems to me that the fx is not getting in maybe.
Do you have an ignore file at all that it could be being ignored in?
Did you try moving this to mapname.gsc in preCacheMyFX function?
while making sure that this is not commented out:

Shouldnt this:
Be in a while loop? Since I was scripting the other day and I couldnt get something similar to work and then I asked Ege115 help and he said to add while loop. Since it only checked the script once at start of game, then since it didnt check it again at the part I wanted it to happen, it didnt work
The FX still doesn't play after making those changes. This is what it looks like now in case I managed to mess it up somehow...ee1()
{
ee1clip = GetEnt("ee1_clip", "targetname");
ee1rock = GetEnt("ee1_rock", "targetname");
FXoree1rock = GetEnt("ee1_rock", "targetname");
FXorg = spawn("script_model",ee1rock getorigin());
FXorg setmodel("tag_origin");
FXorg LinkTo(ee1rock);
round_start = get_round(5);
if(round_start)
{
make_laughquake();
ee1clip moveZ(128,20);
ee1rock moveZ(128,20);
wait 40;
PlayFXOnTag(level.effect["hum"], self, FXorg );

Shouldnt this:normally yes but since he said the rest of the script is working im going to take a guess and say the method is being called in a loop already

I tried adding the FX there, and its not commented out but still nothing. I tried adding it to my _patch.csv and mapname.csv just in case. Absolutely nothing works
And the only ignore file in my mod tools is common_ignore which is empty.- MakeCents

Man, I am at a loss. Have you tried moving the fx to a higher folder? Like make a new folder:
Did you try and add it to mapname.csc in the preCacheMyFX function there?
I'm just throwing anything out there that is different from what I do and what you have here. I don't have any fx that go to more than one folder and I normally add my fx to both gsc and csc as well as csv.
Are you getting any errors when you build?
I assumed the fx plays in efx ed?

Problem could be also, that FX is in more than 1 .csv, if it is. FX needs to be only in 1 .csv
