:O Looks delicious. I think I'll go mess around with it and see what I can come up with.

Seems I can't find out where it is... Is it only available in game at the moment? Didn't they say they'd release it soon as an external program? I don't really want to try it out in game :(

wow, this particle editor is epic. I'll upload some of my stuff later, but you can create some really dramatic and stylized results. Playing with the editor is making me rethink particles in general, they're alot more involved than getting a bunch of sprites to render at the same time.

I added one, and saved it into my tf2 particle folder, even copy/pasted the name of the system. Then in console it tells me my particle effect doesnt exist, when the file is in the right spot... I check ed with GCFScape just ot be triple sure...

I made something I think... Then after I made an emitter, it wouldn't let me make any other things like operators and such. I'll just wait until there's a good tutorial out. The Facepunch thread on Page 6 is actually getting some facts down, so those will be useful.
