Particle Systems and images

Post by enderspike »

Newb here,

So now I'm trying to figure out how to use particle systems. My first issue: I have no idea how to generate or find the kinds of images that go into particle systems. Just some examples would be lovely. I feel like I could generally figure out how to manipulate particle systems from the wiki(though ANY advice is helpful), but I'm so unfamiliar with them I'm having trouble figuring out how to just put one on the screen.

Thanks!

There is a "Search" link in the top right part of this page, by clicking it and searching for "particle" in one of the forums, you could find some examples. Here is one of them:

This editor is fantastic for understanding how particles work, and can even export the code for you to copy and paste into your own game. It's easy enough to edit in new particle images too.
