Supported effects:
Groups:
Camera Control

Syntax

Syntax:
ppEffectCreate [name, priority]
Parameters:
name: String - name of effect type
priority: Number - unique priority, defines order of applying effect to the scene. If there is another effect using the same priority, creation will fail
Return Value:
Number - handle or -1 if failed

Alternative Syntax

Syntax:
ppEffectCreate [[name1, priority1], ...]
Parameters:
nameN: String - name of effect type
priorityN: Number - unique priority, defines order of applying effect to the scene. If there is another effect using the same priority, creation will fail
Return Value:
Array of Numbers [handle1, ...] or Nothing if failed

Examples

Example 1:
_ppGrain = ppEffectCreate ["filmGrain", 2005];
Example 2:
If an effect ID is already used, the effect is not created. Use the following:
private _name = "ChromAberration"; private _priority = 200; private _handle = -1; while { _handle = ppEffectCreate [_name, _priority]; _handle < 0; } do { _priority = _priority + 1; }; // _handle can be used here as usual
or
private _name = "ChromAberration"; private _priority = 200; private _handle = -1; waitUntil { _handle = ppEffectCreate [_name, _priority]; _priority = _priority + 1; _handle > 0; }; // _handle can be used here as usual
