Snow. There is any how that I could modify one of the particles (I don't understand the particle editor) so it looks like snow or is there a better way, like, directly importing penumbra snow particles to HPL2 (Game crashes when I tried to use it)? Please, I really wanted to make a cool outside environment. AND, there is any how to make the cold effect of the beginning of Penumbra in HPL2, too? Thanks!

RE: Does anybody know what am I looking for?

This thread should probably be placed in developement support plus have a better title. Anyways. It is possible, I would guess. All the particle editor does is to spawn a number of images and then make them move, fade, size, resize etc. in different ways.

The image could be "directly imported", I do not think you should go around importing any .ps files. What you would need for snow:
1. An image of some snow
2. Replace the material/image of the "rain particle system" with your snow image and then save it.

As for your second question I do not know, since I do not remember/know the effect you are talking of.

Good luck

I'm pretty good with the particle editor. It's fun to play around with and I've created about 4 or 5 new particle effects. If you have a snow image, let me know. I may go try it now and if I get it right, I'll let you know. Snow can't be too hard =]

Quick question. How heavy is the snow? and wind rush as well... Is the snow falling slow and calm, or fast and windy? Is there a lot, or a little?



I'm making it now, if you would like to watch me make it.

Too late =P already made it. It's soft flowing but a good amount. Enjoy! Please just remember to give me credit? I'm trying to get my name out there a bit. Just go into the zip and merge the "particles" and "textures" and the .ps can be found in the "Statyk-particles" folder.

I've been trying to convert the penumbra broken ice entities from that lake in the game, but I can't. There is no other entity that has the same... structure. When I try to do it, the broken ice mesh doesn't appears. Please help... again...
