CSL Particle Parameter Utility
Steel rat den 2007-03-21 08:52
Features:
You manipulate the parameters of the particleParams, particleCircles, dropInterval, and particleRandom commands through a series of dialogs accessable through the action menu. You can copy and paste the formatted code out of the game to your favorite text editor.
Known issue:
The guy who tested 1.02 (special ed) tells me that using the action menu to open a dialog using the enter key causes them to close immediatly. Using *nearly default* keys. I do not know if this is an issue with 1.02, his keys, my dialog, or the game in general. (I would appreciate any info anybody can give me relating to this possible bug using different game version and keyboard setups. I cannot replicate it in 1.05 with my fully customised controls). Click your mouse scroll wheel instead if it is in any way an issue for you.
Small warning:
This tool does not check for valid parameters beyond what the game engine checks for itself. You can set parameters for some particle effects that will cause the game to crash. The few I've seen have all been related to setting shapeName 0 and shapeName 0 - 3 to an invalid combination. I consider this problem to be minor at worst.
There are only 4 parameters you cannot set:
Animation Name: There isn't enough concrete information for me to figure out what options to give the editor.
On Timer: Executes a script, therefore beyond the scope of this tool.
Before Destroy: Executes a script, therefore beyond the scope of this tool.
Object: Sets the target object of the script. Not relevent for the purposes of this utility.
Both a PBO version and an non Pbod version are included. Unless you want to edit something (like for example, you wish to do your edits directly on an addon vehicle or something, you can drop it in. Totally unsupported.), stick with the PBO.
The PBO goes in:
(yourArmaDirectory)\missions\
The Non PBO (whole folder) goes in:
(Your arma user directory)\(your user name)\missions
