I found that particle which looks like magic is not drawing in render.

I've checked the "15 - Particles.cpp" tutorial and it works fine

I've got only fire, fountain and smoke particles.

please try to make a clean install of SDK (extract the 7z archive to a seperate place), copy the headers and lib manually, and check again

The same.

I have the same problem.

will it help if you remove this line?

and what kind of CPU's do you have?

No, but it works when I add some velocity or acceleration.

Pentium 4 3 GHz

AMD Athlon 2.0 x 2;

if you will remove setting velocities and acceleration to other types of particles, then they will not render too?

I change code:

Quote: // and now particle[2], fountain-like
{
Image *image =Images("particle/drop.gfx");
Color color =Color(150,20,120,200); // particle[2] will be rendered in a different way (alpha blended) so make sure to set up alpha value in the color
Int elms =500;
Flt radius =0.02,
life_avg=1.0;

particle[2].create(image,color,elms,radius,life_avg) // create particles
.source(Vec(0,0,0)); // set generation source to a single point
//particle[2].accel.set(0,-2,0); // enable acceleration to simulate gravity
//particle[2].vel_random=1.0; // set random velocity
//particle[2].vel_constant.set(2,2,0); // set constant velocity vector
particle[2].damping=0.98; // enable damping
particle[2].set(Vec(0.5,0,0)).reset(); // move to the right and reset every single particle
}

// particle[3], smoke-like
{
Image *image =Images("particle/fire.gfx");
Color color =Color(100,0,0,0); // particle[3] will be rendered in a different way (alpha blended) so make sure to set up alpha value in the color
Int elms =40;
Flt radius =0.15,
life_avg=1.5;

particle[3].create(image,color,elms,radius,life_avg) // create particles
.source(Vec(0,0,0)); // set generation source to a single point
//particle[3].vel_random=0.2; // set random velocity
particle[3].set(Vec(-1,0,0)).reset(); // move to the left and reset every single particle
}

and i don't have smoke and water

ok, thanks very much, I've made a small change in the shader, please wait for the next engine version, if the problem won't disappear, then please contact me again

please let me know if particles are now working

I still don't see magic particle.

Btw. Can you add in engine options that folder VersionControlServer and file path.txt will be not removed when option Remove Additional Files is checked?

EDIT: Could you check this file as a cloud layer image in alpha = 0 and tell me how it looks like? I can't see this layer but i've got sth like this: http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/4631/upie.jpg

I use this code: Clouds.layered.layer[3].color=ColorAlpha(0); or Clouds.layered.layer[3].color=Color(0,255,255,255);
