Sorry I coudllnt' find a fix for this in the "ultimate modding thread" so I had to post a new topic :( Ok can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? My map just isn't loading with my new emitter code :[ new code, the bar doesn't even go up a little... I've had this problem with all the emitter codes I've EVER tried..

Datablock particledata(lightparticle)

{

AnimateTexture = "0";

AnimTexName[0] = "game/data/shapes/tanks/reticle.png";

};

//

//

Datablock particleemitterdata(lightparticleemitter)

{

};

//--- OBJECT WRITE BEGIN ---

Then I have

//--- OBJECT WRITE END ---

Lightprojectile.emitter = "lightparticleemitter";
lightprojectile.emitter = "lightparticleemitter";

This two should start with small capital:

Datablock particledata(lightparticle)

Datablock particleemitterdata(lightparticleemitter)

So they would look like this "datablock particledata(lightparticle)" and "datablock particleemitterdata(lightparticleemitter)".

By the way, the emitter dosent look bad either.

 

 

 

 

Times 3 is smaller than times 2. It doesn't like that.
