Regarding my post a couple of days ago, there was a bug found in S3D by leovampire regarding the ParticleGenerator controller.

This can temporarily be fixed manually like so:
  1. Close S3D if running.
  2. Go to the install path of S3D (ie. C:\Program Files\skwas\Silent 3ditor)
  3. Open the PropertyDefinitions.xml in Notepad
  4. Find the following line:

    <property name="BitmapParticles/Name" datatype="string" fixedLength="16" />
  5. Directly below this, paste in the next line:

    <property name="ObjectParticles/Name" datatype="string" fixedLength="16" />
  6. Save and close notepad.
This change will mean modified files will no longer read correctly... (any file which you saved and contains an ObjectParticles for that matter) When you try, S3D will complain with an error dialog. Iow, you have to redo the changes in an original file, and test it again.

A future release will contain this fix as many new fixes and new techniques to improve data type support.
