I've started a new project because my last one was never gonna work.

So I decided to make a few fixes to 2fort but eventually decided to tweak the map a bit more (brush work and visibility) and give the map more detail.

But when i got to adding more particles

they just didn't show up in game ;

Even tho they did in hammer++ ;















(The button cube was an attempt to activate the particles manually)

I've extracted all the particles into tf\particles and even made a text file accourding to the Valve documentation but it still refuses to show up so i made a test map to test all the weird fixes i could find online but still nothing.

I'm probably doing something wrong but i cant figure out what it is so i came here once again to ask for help since i've had luck with this community so far.

I have attached the test map vmf and bsp files along withe the particles text file that should go with the map.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance :3​

Edit ; i tried Compile Pal 028 and it did recognise that i have used a particle system and packed it in the bsp but it still didn't show up in game.

Edit again ; I tried to run the map in gmod and everything works as intended there! What is going on?

Another edit ; I'm trying to use particles from sawmill and in the original map the particles work but when i decompile the map and recompile it doesn't work anymore but when i open it in gmod it does?!?
