-===== Fix Overview =====
+===== Fix =====
 There is a missing reference to one of the fireworks models.  Once the reference is added you will be able to see the fireworks model.
-==== Install 7zip ====
+You'll need an archive app that supports JAR files.  If you don't have one you can download and install [[https://www.7-zip.org/download.html|7zip]].
-Download and install [[https://www.7-zip.org/download.html|7zip]] if you don't have it already, or use your current archive manager that supports JAR files.
+. Close all running copies of Wurm.
+. Navigate to your **WurmLauncher\packs** folder.  If you can't find it, open Steam, find the Wurm Unlimited listing in your library, right click, Manage, Browse local files.  Go into WurmLauncher, packs.
-* Navigate to your WurmLauncher\packs folder.  If you can't find it, open Steam, find the Wurm Unlimited listing in your library, right click, Manage, Browse local files.  Go into WurmLauncher, packs.
+. Right click **graphics.jar** and **Open** with your archive manager or [[https://www.7-zip.org/download.html|7zip]] File Manager.
-* Right click graphics.jar and Open with [[https://www.7-zip.org/download.html|7zip]] File Manager.
+. Scroll down to find the **mappings.txt** file.  **Open** it.
-* Open the mappings.txt file.
+. **Add** this **line** ```model.fireworks.wurm.birchwood = pottery/potterf.wom``` as a new line anywhere in the file.  What I did was search "fireworks" and put it in with the other lines concerning fireworks models.
-* //Add// this line ```model.fireworks.wurm.birchwood = pottery/potterf.wom``` as a new line anywhere in the file.  What I did was search "fireworks" and put it in with the other lines concerning fireworks models.
+. Menu option **File, Save** (or typically CTRL-S).  **Close** the text editor to trigger an update.
-* File, Save (CTRL-S), close the text editor (notepad, unless you use something else as default).
+. When the popup asks select **Update** to write the changes to the graphics.jar file.
-* When the popup asks, update the file. This will take a while since it's the main graphics file.
 You should now be able to see the fireworks box model.
-//NOTE: If you get “file in use” errors when updating the files, it is because a copy of Wurm Unlimited is stuck running in the background. Use Task Manager to close all copies of Wurm Client, or reboot to fix the issue.//
+//NOTE: If you get “file in use” errors when updating the files, it is because a copy of Wurm Unlimited is stuck running in the background. Use Task Manager (CTRL-ALT-DEL) to close all copies of Wurm Client, or reboot to fix the issue.  Then do the edit to ensure it saves.//
+//NOTE: If a GM creates a firework from a non-standard wood type, it will show up as a bag.  The fix for this is to add a new line for// ```model.fireworks.<woodtype>```//, for example,// ```model.fireworks.oleanderwood```//.  You can find the model name by binding action 185 (get info) to a key and using it on the firework.//
