Has anyone get it compiled? ^^
Have tryed it actually, but its still wont work.

I think the ressource missing a few bits of code, or there are some errors where to put the code ;)

if someone has get it to work, please post exact way ;)

Alex, what errors are you getting when you try to compile? I pulled the resource out of my heavily modified source so its very possible I missed some code.

Hi Alex, thanks for the report. Looks like I forgot to add one of the required includes to the resource:

ShapeBase.h
#include "game/fx/particleEmitter.h"

class ParticleEmitter;

Let me know if that works.

Still compile errors.

../engine\game/shapeBase.h(539) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '*'
../engine\game/shapeBase.h(539) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

../engine\game/shapeBase.h(638) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'ParticleEmitterNode'

Have tryed to add "class ParticleEmitterNode", but it was to simple, i think ;P
Will check it if i'm back from the party ;)
