Weather Effects problem

Okay, here's my interesting trigger problem.

I created a region, called FogRegion.

I know I set up the Event/Condition right. Here's the Action:

Environment - Create at FogRegion the weather effect Dungeon Green Fog (Heavy)
Environment - Turn (last created weather effect) on

And for kicks, I threw in a text display after that, to make sure the trigger was going, and the text display shows. But there's no green fog. I'm frankly not even sure what it is supposed to look like, but there's definetly nothing resembling green fog.

Any clues?

try something more obvious as Rays of light, it might je not be visable.

This cant be the problem, but might be usefull.

Make your weather effect a variable

Create Variable WeatherFX1, Catagory Weather effect

Then set your variable after you´ve created the weather effect like this:

Set Variable: WeatherFX1 = Last created Weather effect

Then set the turn weather effect on / off to thet variable:

Turn ´WeatherFX1´ on.

Hope this helpes.

Thanks! It was the graphics. I had them turned down because of all the memory eaten up switching between the Editor and the game.

another problem in the same direction:

i create a weather efefct by a trigger. All clear so far.
but i can't be turned off anymore.

turn last wether effect of (i onlay have one weather effect so far so the last must be the right one) doesnst stop it.

even if i move the region creating the effect the effect still remains where it is.

....

i had the same problem: turning off the weather effect didn't do. I removed the effect and that was working.

It worked for me after I increased the "Particles" setting to medium. I think that's the only one that changes how the weather effects are displayed.
