I think a lot of folks would benefit from a particle lite c workshop to be added to the others.
New folks need a complete example that includes mdl and level file w/ particle effect attached to a vertex and not too much extra stuff to obscure it-- along with some explanation.
I think that the absence of a lite c particles editor really makes it challenging to focus on just creating.
I think the solution is to keep the scripting language stable for some time so that such a tool won't be obsolete quickly. An artist is asked to know how to paint, draw, sculpt, learn 3d tools, 2D tools, animate, create environments and acrchitecture... along with a bunch of other stuff-- like deal with version control software and IT/hardware issues. The time to really getting into scripting artistic effects is not really there...so again any more help is appreciated.
Thanks..
