Particle System Again

<div class="IPBDescription">the thing with the thing</div> are there a way to slow down the speed of the particles?
i meen like smoke that it doesnt <i>steam</i> out, just flows with the "wind" so to say, the same with waterdrops.. it feels that it goes really fast to the floor

you know what i meen?

and this: when im checking the Particle Density flag, no particles come.. when unchecking it, it comes

To get slower particles, just use smaller values in the velocity params. The particle density flag is meant for particle systems created using a generation entity. When it is not checked, the generation rate is in particles per second. When it is checked, the generation rate is particles per second per million cubic units, with the volume taken from the generation entity.

A bigger conundrum yet, why when I use alpha max == 0.1 and check the fade in and fade out flags does the particle system stop working? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

The only dynamical way to change their velocity is by checking the use gravity flag. You can set the velocity parameters to make it as slow as you want, but you can't make smoke fall to the floor and gently slow down.(you might fake it with several particle systems though...)

thx for the answers! i find the particle system really hard to get actually
