    I've just posted a tutorial for a fully fledged particle system over at DieHard Wolfers. By default it acts as a replacement for the normal rain and snow, but it can be used for just about anything you want.

    Hmm, that's not good. Is that following the tutorial or the pre-built code?

    EDIT: I found the issue, go redownload either the alu_particles.cpp file or the whole code.

    OK, that's _really_ weird. If you want, email me your source code and I'll take a look at why it's happening.

    all levels works!

    EDIT: problem solved...you put DoSnow; instead of DoSnow();


    but................. 
    apparently is not compatible with this tutorial:
    http://diehardwolfers.areyep.com/viewtopic.php?t=6264

    no way to fix it?

    Yeah, I kind of fucked that up. I've fixed it in the tutorial now.

    And I think you can do that tutorial, but instead of putting the code below the line 'if (!*statptr->visspot) continue;', put it below the line'"visptr->next = NULL;'. This is because the way I've had to rewrite that function means that at the point you'd normally insert the code visptr doesn't actually exist.
