Creating particles.

[Icaruk 14]

I haven't found any working tutorial/example about this, I just want to create water or fire particles on a single position.

I found the drop command but I'm so lost without any working example and particle list.

Any help please?

As far as I remember, the wiki does have a working example.

Anyway, look here... that might make it easier:

There are also particle modules in the editor (Modules > Effects) which could be helpful.

For more complex documentation see: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Particle_Effects

Thanks, I finally did a working particle effect, now how can I make it move to where the player is looking at?

Edit: I found a example, I'll post it when I have it working.
