Controling particles

Particles are very cool and alot of fun to play with. I decided along time ago that particles would play a key part in my environment. I just wasn't sure how?...

Now i have control and can manipulate them as needed using the OGRE community's Particle Editor to load and tweak the appearance in real time. This comes with flaws as the Particle Editior version i use is unstable and crashes with odd values. So i test in the Editior and tweak and refine them in the particle script files using a text editor.





This is the final particle

If you don't understand the imagery;
The concept is like a donkey and carrot. The turtle is your spirit guide, who consumes stars for energy. Eventually this 'mechanism' would steer the turtle through the void.
