Explosion Generator script crashing Spring

[Guessmyname]

Through careful testing, I have found that this script is crashing Spring:

[NURGLE_CLOUD]
{
[particlesystem_BUILDER_FX]
{
class=CSimpleParticleSystem;
[properties]
{
sizeGrowth=0.05;
sizeMod=1.0;
pos=0, 1.0, 0;
emitVector=dir;
gravity=0, 0, 0;
colorMap=0.0 1.0 0.0 0.7 0.0 1.0 1.0 0.7
Texture=gas;
airdrag=0.97;
particleLife=45;
particleLifeSpread=5;
numParticles=5;
particleSpeed=1;
particleSpeedSpread=0.25;
particleSize=1;
particleSizeSpread=0.25;
emitRot=10;
emitRotSpread=0;
directional=0;
}
air=1;
water=1;
ground=1;
count=1;
}
}

It's basically the builder FX off Nanoblobs (the magic sparkly thing) modified to be a smog to float around Nurgle Death Guard Marines in Epic Legions. It crashes Spring as soon as it is called in the script (and this isn't a script problem, the script works with other FX scripts)

No semicolon after ColorMap?

I noticed that almost as soon as I posted it.

Fixed now...
stupid typos

Okay, how do you set the alpha on these things? As far as I can tell, only pure black is made transparent, and this is pretty frakking ugly:



What I'm aiming for involves large clouds (particles - know how to do this), that are transparent and float downwards and outwards slowly and at the same time (these I have trouble with)

[KDR_11k]

Use the alpha channel on your texture. AFAIK the texture's color is always added, the more opaque your alpha the more the background gets darkened out.

Black is only needed for alpha blending, dunno if there's an option to force the SPS to use it. Would be cool...

[Guessmyname]

Ha ha! Success!



The march of Nurgle.

Hahahah, nice

[1v0ry_k1ng]

cool! what else is in the mod atm? is there a topic on it?

[Guessmyname]

Yes, but it's a bit old. Epic Legions has a moddb profile, go there and have a wander through the image gallery

[Zoombie]

Mmmm...Nurglites. So you're still working on this? Cool.

[manored]

WOW! NICE! Then i first looked to the picture I looked to the tank and say trees under it, only then I looked well I noticed they were units!

I need to get more of my work out there, then...
