For me, some of the particle effects don't show up in game, namely the smoke - the water bubbles and the bouylights.
I've changed the file in /tf/maps and tf/scripts (for the soundscapes that work) as per the instructions here: http://swamp.tf2maps.net/instructions.php
Whats going wrong? :confused:
Otherwise, great pack - excellent textures and models. :thumbup1:

It's spelled buoy ;)

For the bubbles... I'm not sure? More info?
env_buoy_flash is misspelled in the swamp_zoo.vmf as env_bouy_flash. It should work when you fix that typo.

The bubbles work fine here - keep in mind in the map it's a one-time effect that is shown when you first spawn.

EDIT: Alright, now you seem to have a problem when inserting the particles in another map? Are you sure you renamed the *_particles.txt properly? When your map is called "cp_trotim" it has to be "cp_trotim_particles.txt".

Oh, thats disapointing - I was hoping that they would continue forever, so that I can have a toxic waste swamp.

ABS - yes, other particles like the bugs and water drips work fine.
