Hallo @ll!
I got a prob....
I will make a map for a new Clan, an the idea is, that is should rain Confettis after exploding a bomb ( only inside of a room ). I try to use the weathereffect "snow", and i change the textures of the snow to a custom-textur, but it wan?t work. Ist the original snowtexture some special?
Thats one thing, but the another is, that it should start AFTER the explosion. So - the rain-brush is a func ( func_rain ). How can i let the func spawn AFTER the explode?
An at last - the weathereffect starts verry slowly. But ist should rain exact after the explosion. How can i change this parameter?
Sry 4 my english!

You will have to make a new explosion ".tik" file. You can start with this one and modify/rename it.
Pak0.pk3\models\emitters\explosion_bombdirt.tik
I didn't look very hard, there may be a better (snow) explosion tik somewhere. Because it is an animated model, you can start or stop the animation in you map's script.

Tom Trude,
So - all things still working! 
BUT: console say?s MAX POLLYS EXEED
The logfile become after 30 Seconds 3,5mb!!!
And the frames are near yellow.
So - i dont know if its right:
i make a kofetti-texture with alphachannel, a new shader, and via script-snow-thread all works, but aint playable...
Is there anything wrong?

you probably have the speed of the models falling too high, or maybe you can see too far. Whatever the case, the game is trying to draw WAY too many things at once, and it's keeping itself from frying your computer. Try toning down how many confetti's fall at once.

As your wish, Master! 
This shader makes the colour change. Looks funny!

show / hide will started from a custmiced bomb_thinker.
Is it better to use the animation ( ...tik )?
One point i have untouched yet - the map was build for moh:aa, not for sh ( at this time ). Maybe its different?
