How to create water spray effect?

I've been trying to figure it out myself but I ran out of ideas...

What I need is water spray (http://bit.ly/13pYs4z) effect. I tried to use particles but couldn't get that effect. How I see it in my mind is when player presses a button for shooting it creates water spray effect next to the 'weapon' <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> Any ideas how to make it? Or maybe someone knows properties for particles object that will make that effect?

Hey there BigDream,

It's not hard, particles are the way forwards I think. You will have to mess with it for a few minutes, but you should soon get the hang of it.

Look at the properties and read through them.

Insert a particle object. Double click on it to open the image editor and make the brush size very small. select a grey colour (or whatever colour you mist spray will be). draw a few dots in a sort of cloud shape, but leave lots of space between the dots.

You can rotate the spray cone using the line with a square frame on the end of it. Line it up with you weapon.

To get a broad spray needed for your example, you will have to open up the spray cone to 100. Rate to 40 and give it a try.

Should be in the right direction for you.
