<div class="IPBDescription">regarding env_particles_custom</div> Ok, so I'm working on a outdoor bit of my map and I want to add some snowfall. I've got it working good except for <i>one</i> thing; the sprites go upwards instead of downwards. Changing the the yaw doesn't seem to do a thing (though I could be just puting in the wrong numbers or something). Yeah, I told you I was a newbie. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

So how do I set the particles to fall downwards? And I don't want to use the 'use world gravity' flag as it makes the snow fall too fast.

    The pitch, roll and yaw are not used by env_particles_custom, so ignore them. Instead, look at the initial velocity setting. If your velocity shape is set to box then the first three numbers are the minimum x, y and z velcoity and the next three the maximum. A negative z velocity will cause the particles to move downwards.
