Problems with the emitter tutorial

ummmm, the sio2 version in the emitter tutorial is different from 1.2.1, isn´t it? The tutorial is working fine for me but not when I use my code.

I´m having problems since I´ve performed the change. The sio2ResourceRender adds a new parameter. When I set it to SIO2_RENDER_SOLID_OBJECT everything´s allright but I can´t see the emitter and when I set it to SIO2_RENDER_SOLID_OBJECT | SIO2_RENDER_EMITTER and I play the emitter, the scene goes black, some objects change color, other dissapear, ...

I´ve tried to change SIO2_RENDER_SOLID_OBJECT to ...ALPHA... and ...CLIPPED... but then everything´s wrong.

I´m too tired and perhaps I don´t see it so, any help, please?

Yes, the version of SIO2 in that tutorial bundle is a development version. I had exactly the same experience yesterday :-)

I'm now using 1.2.1 REV A and trying to get an emitter working.

I suppose I´ll try to use it. If you achieve something, please post it here

Hi, I'm sorry but I have to ask... which one is the emitter tutorial?

I've been looking through the tutorials, and even built most of them, but the documentation is pretty much non-existent and I can't begin to guess how to run the particle system stuff.

If anyone has any idea how this stuff works, I'd really appreciate a couple of clues!

You can download the emitter example here but be aware the sio2 version in that example is not fully working.

We really need some example code showing emitters running under the current SIO2. Or, hopefully, the next version will be released soon.
