      The code in the demo lets you choose where you place it, among other things. Once I get the final thing done, it'll be:

      createParticle([0,100,100])

      Giving only a position will create a construction point. Giving a position and radius will create the default black smoke, and you'll also be able to copy a custom group, or (maybe) choose between a few presets. You'll have the option to make your own update code for the particles, which will be executed along with the normal code.

        could you possible have a direction for smoke and such? Like this createParticle([0,0,0],[10,10,10])

          If you mean give it a velocity, sure, that's shown in the demo. Once I get the custom update working, you'll be able to make them do pretty much whatever you want 😍

            Can you increase my FPS then? 😄

            It sounds pretty cool. Can you upload another .skp model to see if it runs faster?

              You might want to check your video settings and make sure that you have Hardware acceleration turned on. Also maybe update your video drivers.

                  forgive me for appearing stupid, but was it a mistake rollling back to rc1? i did this so tat i can upload to 3dwh, but there seems to be a lot going on here that i can't access because of my wish to remain on wh? i have tried running this demo in rc1 but i get an error message.

                    If you have a enough space on your computer, you can copy and paste the Google sketchup folder and install sp3X28 in the one sketchup plugins folder and the original sp3x in the other. be warned though thumbnails might not work correctly.

                        I'm getting 30-35 fps. 👍

                        ```
                        //This_Is_All(I)+=Know()About.Code;
                        ```
