Hey guys, I'm successfully able to
[lua]resource.AddFile("particles/hg_confetticannon.pcf")[/lua]
And I can confirm that the client gets this file, as I tested it on myself.
The problem is, when I try to precache an effect FROM the pcf file,
[lua]PrecacheParticleSystem( "bday_confetti" )[/lua]
It says that [B]"[/B]Attemped to precache unknown particle system "bday_confetti"![B]"[/B]
This means my GMOD did not correctly mount the pcf file.
I know that you have to add the file to particles_manifest.txt, but I can't send the client this file because it already exists in the default gmod install.
So how can I get around this?
I tried putting the pcf and txt file into a subfolder, and then sending that to the client, but the client still gets the same error when trying to preacache it.
Anyone?
Use this instead of particles_manifest: [url]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/game/AddParticles[/url]
Thank you so much this was killing me! :P
