The file mbmuz.shp seems to contain the muzzle flashes.

What "muzzle flashes", I have no recollection of there ever having been such, even back in the SPI days. IF we removed them then II have absolutely no recall of that - and if we ever did so, it must have been way back in the dawn of MS-DOS prehistory.

SP games already give you far too much free information as to what unlocated enemy element is firing on you, and where it is firing from, in any case.

So they are not coming back, even if they existed in the first place. (The mic SHP files have plenty of left-overs from ideas the SSI team must have once had but never implemented, or re-did another way).
