Sorry about these… nobody around here used the Scene Editor this semester, so it needs a little maintenance.

The first one is a known bug… the SceneEditor is using the “EggData” module, but I didn’t include that in the distribution. Duh. I’m fixing it in 1.0.4. Elsewhere in the forums, David explains the workaround (which involves genpycode). I can’t remember it off the top of my head.

The second one is a bigger problem, it needs some actual repair. Until then, you can use the particle sample program to bring up the particle panel, and design your particle systems.

when is 1.0.4 expected? until then, is there any way i can just download the EggData module? can i grab it if i download the full source for panda?

Hello!

The info on how to get the egg data is in the post by drwr at:

(I believe the 4th post down :slight_smile:

Good Luck!
