Particle Candy bug

Hi,

I have found a bug in Particle Candy (in fact this is the 3rd bug I have found). The other 2 were fixed by Mike pretty quickly but he appears to have been abducted by aliens...

If you set up camera fog and place an emitter into the fog then particles cannot be seen (far enough), however if you set the emitter fx to ignore fog then you still cannot the particles. Surely this is wrong.

Does anyone know how to solve this or know which planet they have taken Mike to?

Just a thought, I don't have particle candy so I'm probably wrong...

Is your camera view distance set higher than your fog far range? If not, it should be.

Is it setup like...

g_game_camera=CreateCamera(g_game_player)
PositionEntity g_game_camera, 0, 0.7, -0.5
CameraRange g_game_camera,0.1,6000
CameraFogMode g_game_camera,1
CameraFogRange g_game_camera,1,15

I've seen my particles from particle candy in fog. I
wonder if it is a driver issue. I have a nvidia card.

Hmm, try this...

Include "particle candy.bb"

Graphics3D 800,600,0,2

camera=CreateCamera()
CameraFogMode camera,1
CameraFogRange camera, 1, 10
PositionEntity camera,0,0,-5

CreateListener(camera)

InitParticles camera,"particles.png",3 

emitter3 = CreateEmitter()
EntityFX emitter3, 8 ; THIS SHOULD DISABLE FOG FOR THIS EMITTER
