I seem to be the only one who can't get a fx working. I tried the powerup fx but doesn't work either.

fx()
{
ent = getentarray("train_light","targetname");

	fx_origin = spawn ("script_model",ent.origin);
	fx_origin setmodel ("tag_origin");
 
	PlayFxOnTag(level._effect["powerup_on"], fx_origin, "tag_origin");
	fx_origin linkto(ent);
}

Is it an actual array you're wanting to call this on? Then add a for loop, otherwise change getentarray to getent..
Now your spawning the fx_origin on an array (ent.origin) don't think that works..

Yeah, it doersn't. Also same goes for LinkTo() with an array.

, it worked now, so all this was because the nooby Ege115 who had a stupid array that wont work if you want to link or play a fx on?

Wow, This is the most nooby thing I have done in scripting. Thank you so much for the help Phil and Bluntstuffy.

I will give you both +1

Good  you got it working now! And if you want you can use it on an array, with something like this:

fx()
{
ent = getentarray("train_light","targetname");

	for(i=0;i<ent.size;i++)
	{
		ent[i].fx_origin = spawn ("script_model",ent[i].origin);
		ent[i].fx_origin setmodel ("tag_origin");
 
		PlayFxOnTag(level._effect["powerup_on"], ent[i].fx_origin, "tag_origin");
		ent[i].fx_origin linkto(ent[i]);
	}
}
