Example code for the id PARTICLEBASE_MODE in Owind

Note that this is not the actual code from the Owind file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (Owind.res)


LONG  PARTICLEBASE_MODE
{
                        
    CYCLE 
    {         PARTICLEBASE_MODE_ACCELERATION; 
        PARTICLEBASE_MODE_FORCE; 
        PARTICLEBASE_MODE_AERODYNAMICS; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (Owind.h)

#ifndef OWIND_H__
#define OWIND_H__
enum
{
  PARTICLEBASE_MODE = 1000,  //First ID should start at 1000
    PARTICLEBASE_MODE_ACCELERATION = 1,
    PARTICLEBASE_MODE_FORCE = 2,
    PARTICLEBASE_MODE_AERODYNAMICS = 3,
};
#endif	// OWIND_H__

String File Code (Owind.str)
