I meant to put dag1_prop_mist in there, but for some reason, it shows up as cotton candy >.>

What did I do wrong?

1, have you edited the texture?
2, have you edited the fx file?

did a manual clean...fixed it -.-


Lock/delete?


*EDIT* Well, I guess I could put this topic to some use. Now that I have the mist fixed, how do I make them...bigger? There's like a bajillion parameters that say 'size' or 'scale'...

Opening up the effect in Particle Editor, completely expand all the emitter trees. Click on "Stages" under "Spawner". The size values there are what the particles initially spawn as. The size values under transformer are how the size is changed over the transformer's lifetime.

Any other questions?

Do I *have* to do it in Particle Editor? I mean, there's a bunch of parameters in the ODF dealing with the scale and size. I already fooled with one of them and it mad the 'middle' one bigger.

you could also use a texteditor to open the effect and change the size this way

'Tis kinda what I said.

So I guess I'll just keep fooling with the parameters and see if I can get them all big.

you were asking if there was another way beside using PE. you only said you edited odf-parameters, so i gave you an answer correct under these circumstances. where did you say you edited the effect (not an odf) with a texteditor?

@ Padawan - I opened up the odf you're talking about and I see only four parameters possibly related to size (Min and MaxSize, as well as the Radius lines). I've never edited an effects odf file and I'm not entirely sure how effect odfs work, anyway, since most (if not all) of what you can do with them you could do just as well with Particle Editor.

I wrote a pseudotutorial for PE a while back - link. Part of it'll go over how to change the size of an effect.

I laughed hard when I saw this. I am telling you, that is the best epic fail ever .

Anyway, all I can saw is maybe you could just scrap the mist from yavin and use geonosis mist or perhaps dagobah mist

This isn't Yavin mist, it's Dagobah mist -.-

@Fiodis: Ah...did I say ODF?...dang, sorry. I meant the .fx file.

In that case I urge you even more strongly to use PE to edit it.

That's actually kinda cool. Maybe you should repeat the mistake intentionally on a later map.

um, well change it to Yavin mist. Why must you use dagobah mist? I think you should just use an alternate asset, but what ever...

Maybe he feels that Dagobah mist fits in better? Anyway, it's not like it's an unsolvable hardcoded problem or anything.

meh, well, whatever floats your boat I guess. Personally, I am not as picky or anything. Only when I really want something to be amazing and flawless...
