Ive composed a simple particle script to emit a flame texture. Used when a car changes to hovermode and bursts out from the wheels.
The script is working and looks ok but occasionally a texture floats further then its supposed to do giving the whole an unrealistic view. I was thinking to perhaps rez an object when in hover mode and set a llSetTextureAnimation? but that seems rather complicated. Suggestion on how to make it more stable is very appreciated.
Cheers,
