Re: [hlcoders] Tony's Rain Splash tutorial on VDC
Yeah, he's just not precaching it in the correct spot.
move the precache to a normal precaching place.
wow so cryptic, but i don't remember right now what the default locations
are besides the player precache.

Re: [hlcoders] Tony's Rain Splash tutorial on VDC
I think he's trying to precache the particle system in his code via:
CClient_Precipitation::ClientThink()
{
Simulate( gpGlobals->frametime );
PrecacheParticleSystem("Rain_01_impact");
}
Which seems odd to me, shouldn't there be a initialize/precache section that
he could do it in there?
I also don't know if he's trying to precache the right particle name. And
then I think they don't show up in his code because they aren't precached?
Here's the tutorial he followed:
