Function agk::SetParticlesAngle(..,..) in tier2(and I think tier1 too) 108.24 and previous doesn't work. Am I alone with this?

I didn't notice a problem with it. I'm using it in my game.
I took the code from the examples provided with AppGameKit for my explosion of feathers effect.
The agk::SetParticlesAngle ( 1, 360.0f ) gave me the effect I was looking for, which is to blow the feathers off the bird 360 degrees.

I think you just didn't notice that rotation is not working! Use the square particles and you'll see.

Well, do mean each particle rotating about as it is moving from its starting position?

If so, I didn't take that command to mean that. I took it to mean the particles would emit at the degree I set from the starting position.

No, I mean each particle must start from random (if you set) angle. It doesn't happening!

Well, I understood now, what does this function do. But how can I rotate the particle's image (from just start)??? Or this is impossible??

You might be looking for SetParticlesFaceDirection(ID, mode)?

EDIT: Wait, I didn't notice that you are using AGKv1. That command may only be in v2, not sure.
