Well, when you shoot, the crossbow projectile impact does trigger a particle effect. However, it seems like you might be thinking of using a Trigger object to start a particle effect. Do a search for Triggers - there are plenty of tutorials and threads about them.

This seems to be in the wrong forum, as it's not related to game design, though you could say it's a creative issue. And I can't see whitch other forum it would be better suited in. Maybe TGEA public, since you've mentioned elsewhere you're using TGEA.
