Morphball wirerender.png This file format needs more research
Key parameters need reverse-engineering

The WPSC effect script format is used to build weapon-projectiles in the Metroid Prime series. Projectile appearance, audio and motion are controlled by the keys in this script.

SWHC Keys

Scope is one of (Constant, System)

  • Constant parameters are evaluated once initially and retained within the system.
  • System parameters are evaluated per-system, per-frame.
