particles+eLto= no match :(

[eLto]

yeah, i was wondering about particles. Hoping to get an answer asahp (as soon as HUMANLY possible, to any non-matrix'ers out there)

how do i REMOVE a particle effect? like the oh-so annoying Bodyfall dustclouds... say i wanna remove them, cause theyre really just annoying...

[Joonas]

From the game?

Two ways:

1. Replace the dust particle with a dummy particle effect.
2. Find the text file that tells the engine to emit the effect when the collision happens and delete those lines.

[eLto]

It's all in particles.txt, and if i try to delete it, it complains about it beeing missing...

Forget particles.txt, go to decals.txt and look for "bodyfall". Then comment out the line where particles are attached to the bone.

that did the trick, thanks a bunch, Rico.
