Special FX Mod

All of these are based on vanilla meshes.

Some meshes have been edited to fit my textures better but both the textures & new meshes should be compatible with everything as long as doesn't cover the same thing.

I've included the vanilla texture replacers as well (not directly referenced by my meshes) so that any other mod that uses the vanilla textures will use them.

There are a lot more included but I am only one person and I can't possibly name everything.
