Your effect doesn't have to be in that certain folder =/ with the certain name. Just make sure the GSC file has the correct directory and name.

I'm not too sure what you're asking, depending on what effect it is, the gsc file can be written to load it's position.

Example::

Muzzleflashes.. You need to edit the effect name in the weapon file.

World effects / sparks, smoke, fire.. Add co-ordinates of the effect in the gsc.

Just elaberate on the question :) (I usually read wrong anyways lol)
