Does Cloth and particles working with 5.9 update of Darkbasic pro?

in my Darkbasic pro cloth and particles does not working.

My version of my library is ver 2.0 and it is 11th/April/2005.

And something else I upgrade first the 5.8 then 5.9 and when
I install cloth and particles my version went down to 5.2?

What happened? and does not work.

It does work with 5.9 beta 3.

Were you already on 5.8? Cloth & Particles was updated for 5.8. Try downloading it again from your Orders section, it will give you the latest version.

I think you need upgrade 5.7 or higher to get the cloth and particle pack working. I have upgrade 5.9 BETA 3 and just tried to compile the ghost train example. It works just fine here.

Have you registered Cloth & Particles? If it doesn't understand the commands, it would suggest it doesn't know it's there.

If it was a version problem, it would recognise the commands, but do weird stuff when it ran.

I thing I have registered the library.

When I installed it , system asked my to activate my darkbasic pro
and I activate my darkbasic. It didn't asked me to activate cloth and particles.

How can I register my cloth and particles?

I download my library from order section of my profile.

what next?

For example the command SET PHYSICS FRAME RATE 80 is with blue color , this means compiler has recognize the command , but I have error could not understand command at line 266.

I have had tried to compile the cloth and particles library
since 5.7 but only one time worked with older versions.

When cloth and particle upgraded to v2 , it never worked
neither 5.7 , 5.8 nor 5.9 upgrade.

And when I install it , my darkbasic version descent to 5.2.

So , could you explain this?

I have purchase the library since march and I have never made it
working so far.

Thank you very very much. Cloth and Particles worked.

For now. I need to put the Cloth and particles code to activate not
the darkbasic code. I allways put the Darkbasic activation code to
activate my cloth and particles.


Thank you very very much all for answers and help.

Now I am concern about how to skin my windows with BlueGui.
I will post new message about BlueGui skinning.

I too have a problem.
In the hall demo the fire and the smoke are not where they are supposed to be.I am useing version 2.1 of the particles dll.

In engine version 5.7 everthing is where it is supposed to be. In 5.8 and 5.9b3 it is not.In 5.8 the fire and smoke are at 0,0,0 and changeing the code does not seem to move it.In 5.9b3 the drapes are also at 0,0,0 along with the fire and smoke and can't seem to be changed.
When I downgraded back to 5.7 everthing was back to where it was supposed to be.

Sounds like you need to download from your orders section again.

I am having the same problem. I have 5.8 and version 2 of the Cloth and Particle Pack and it too is placing all of the particles at position 0,0,0. It did work in 5.7 and the cloth demos are not having any issues. Has anyone posted this in the Bug Report Forum? Is it a confirmed issue? Thanks...

Never mind. I found the post in the Bug Reports forum and this issue is a confirmed bug. They suggested repositioning the particle emmitter before each sync to fix the issue for now. I hope this helps.
