That was the first custom graphics card I ever bought and installed myself. That card is older than old!

I like this tool. Good work.

EDIT: Disregard these questions. Thanks.
Can I download the .png files anywhere? I want the PS to look like it did when I was editing it. Also, I was wondering if your code to use the PS is the same as mine?
In love.load():
ps = love.graphics.newParticleSystem( fire, 5 )
ps:start()
In love.update(): ps:update(dt)
In love.draw(): love.graphics.draw( ps, 800,200)

It looks excellent! This is the sort of actually useful program I never end up writing. :awesome:

It's a little flaky in some places, apparently... sometimes it seemed to randomly stop making particles and not start again, but I couldn't manage to make this happen reliably.

Still. Very useful! What GUI library did you use for the interface, if any?

Same here! I actually bought it out of a magazine. That thing lived to run Halflife 2 even.

Finally I can run it! It's very nice, but the radiant and tangent accelerations change too much, too easily

Thanks, I like it, I used it when I needed a PS and it sure saved me a lot of time. In the next versions, I think it's important to have an option to load a previously saved PS, so that I can tune it later.

Wow, I missed that!
For a first project, that is quite awesome.
The GUI is neat, by the way!

Brilliant. Incredibly useful for development and reference.

My only gripe is that the text is a little small (though I do understand that the emphasis should be on the particles and info).
