Parameters:
nameN: String - name of effect type

_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
