:
"ParticlePanel"
{
"ControlName" "CTFParticlePanel"
"fieldName" "ParticlePanel"
"xpos" "0"
"ypos" "0"
"zpos" "55"
"wide" "f0"
"tall" "f0"
"visible" "1"
"proportionaltoparent" "1"
"ParticleEffects"
{
"0"
{
"particle_xpos" "c0"
"particle_ypos" "c0"
"particle_scale" "3"
"particleName" "env_rain_001" // you can change particle name here
"start_activated" "1"
"loop" "1"
}
}
"paintbackground" "0"
}
