    those are done with particle systems.

    <a href='http://pstutorial.tripod.com/' target='_blank'>http://pstutorial.tripod.com/</a>

    that is the only place i know of, since i haven't had to look at anything in a long time. Some things will be changed. But in miasma, the particle system was created, then on entity_spawn i think it was, somethin like that, haven't done it in a while, make a func_illusionary with invisable text on it. This entity will be the spawn entity for yer particle system.

    Someone else could explain better than me, ive been away from mapping for too long now, agh, evil holidays.

    Also, if you do a search <b>18</b> pages come up with the term "particle", including threads <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=57165&hl=particle' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=55125&hl=particle' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=48068&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=41038&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=37934&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=35014&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=34073&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a> <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=30464&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a> and also <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=28335&hl=' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    but particles are hardstuff. there was a map... ns_moria, right! there was this cool "damaged"-res effect. will need it too cause noone can tell by only seing a model of a node.

    -> commander ignoring the missing green circle "damn ****! another map with the hera effect!!!"

    particles are very easy. I do suggest downloading the nsmapping thing that was released before 1.0. I forget what it was called, but it gives u ingame particle editing. Then u could just copy down the values and put them in yer map.

    If you are talking about my map, ns_moira... well, I don't think you are, I don't have a "damaged res" effect in it.

    Perhaps you are mistaken. Perhaps there is another map, called ns_moria. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    There is another map, ns_moria, made by venemous, the broken res nozzle was a reskin by me, but he added on black particle effects, where in ns_deus i was using sparks. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Saying this makes you wonder if people actually look for problems theirself, or make others doing it for them. A good lesson can be learned from this, always search the forums <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    (Another idea is making 'New Topic' only allowed after a search has been performed for what you want. May be a bit too drastic though)
