Particles

can you set a particle system active using set entity active cuz i know its not an entity so im a bit confused

[flamez3]

It's not an entity, so you use

Code: (Select All)

CreateParticleSystemAtEntity(string& asPSName, string& asPSFile, string& asEntity, bool abSavePS);

Creates a particle system on an entity.
asPSName - internal name
asPSFile - the particle system to use + extension .ps
asEntity - the entity to create the particle system at
abSavePS - determines whether a particle system should “remember” its state

then why can you make it active and inactive?

[Statyk]

then why can you make it active and inactive?

WHY?... So it doesn't repeat itself. Odd question.

I think there are some things that have that as an option in the level editor, but don't quite work. For example, disabling lights won't work, you have to do it through scripting; at least in my experience.

Exactly, certain things like tables and sofas don't deactivate, just trial and error I guess.
