Being able to output to code would be the more useful update IMO.

It would be great! the first version is awesome. I couldn't get it to compile properly, but the bin version rocks!

It has helped me a lot !

go for it!!!!

@Tyn: it does. Particle ed 1.0 let's you export the code after you have gotten the visual results of the the particle system you require. The you just paste the code into your program (and copy the necesary jpegs into your media folder).

can't imagine what new features v2.0 will have

Are we talking about the same editor? The one that tells you that the VC++ edition is the learner edition when you start it up?

yes - but now i've bought the standard edition.......

@bal: thank you but this isn't the problem. i lost the code and the binaries. but that doesn't matter because i'm started working on version 2.0 which is absolutely new.

OK, np then. I'm looking forward to the release

Best thing a v2 could offer would be an ability to export xml representation of the particle system and then provide a calss that loads said xml and runs the apprpriate code...

I'm talking about this ParticleEditor: (bin version)

but I don't know if it's the same author.

cheers

i didn't code that particle editor.

planed features:

- timeline: it will be able to adjust the time when a effect starts up
- LUA Script: it will be able to control these timeline and more with LUA-Script
- LUA Editor and interpreter will be included
- export created particle systems to IPS-Files which are able to import to your own Irrlicht Application using a File-Loader Class, that comes with the editor

that are the main new features

oops, sorry. Is it going to be similar to work with?

DarkWood_Neo, If you're interested in the source let me know and I'll upload a link since the files were taken down from their site.

Won't lua scripts and stuff make it complicated for us newbies?
