  • Updating Monthly Emitter Error

    Posted by Johnny Hizz on January 10, 2008 at 6:08 pm

    I had recently just purchased Particle Illusion 3.0.2 and it is awesome! Recently I downloaded the monthly emitters pack ( the two “huge” Zip File ones) I went and opened them and I didn’t know what format to open them in. So I chose Particle Illusion and I placed them into my System Files Directory in Particle Illusion in Emitters. Well when I reopened it I still had all the same emitters a before but none of the updated ones. I went to click on them and I get a messge that says “Wrong file type” or “File Damaged:are you sure this file isn’t open?”

    Can someone please help me I feel that I am missing out on a whole lot with out these new emitters.

    Thank you
    John

    Oops! You extracted them to the wrong folder. Try \program files\particleillusion 3.0\emitter libraries

    You should have about 1800 emitters.

    Just tried that and still nothing, all of the normal ones are fine. When I try to click on them to open individually it says they are not Particle Illusion files.
