More issues with rain.eff and others added

I just purchased TGB and went through the process of adding the missing particle effect images and updated the .cs file. I now see the animated rain effect when I add it to the scene. It does not show up, however, when I run the scene. Was I supposed to do something else with the images or teh .cs file. (It appears all the added effects are doing the same thing.)

Are you adding them as .eff's or are you creating new effects?

In the editor, I could see the new images and particles. I could add them to the scene and I had the cloud with the rain particles mounted to it. But when I launch the game, the cloud is there but the rain is not. I tried changing the settings for the rain effect and it worked some times when I set a working image (like the cloud one) as an image for the rain (raining particles of clouds looks weird btw...)
Actually it is no big deal since I have no issue when I create a new project and add images/effects via the editor. I was just wondering what did I do wrong ? :)

Actually, I read the article "Torque Game Builder – Mounting Tutorial" and it gives a link to additional images & particles (http://docs.garagegames.com/tgb/official/content/documentation/Tutorials/Feature/newParticles.zip). I just copied the images into the "TutorialBase/resources/starterArt/" folder and overwrote the resourceDatabase.cs there with the one included in the zip file.In the editor, I could see the new images and particles.

Does anyone have an idea on how to fix it?
