This may be useful for modders who alter the game's default weapon effects.
In Rebellion many of the particles were replaced but different filenames were used, which means there are many leftovers which aren't used by the game anymore (which can be quite confusing, as not all files were replaced and a different naming convention has been used with CapShip/Frigate/Titan/Starbase instead of Heavy/Medium/Light). There are some anomolies that are still referenced even though all similar references point to a replacement, and some that are used for something other than their description suggests. Here's the list; if there's nothing in brackets, the file isn't referenced at all.
