OgreFlow
=============

A simple .NET based particle editor for the Ogre3D Engine

=============

It's hard to create particle effects in Ogre 3D engine without seeing the final results in real-time. Going back and forth and re-launching the engine every time after making one or couple of corrections to the particle scripts is non-intuitive.

OgreFlow helps to remedy this problem - it is a simple Ogre3D Engine particle configuration editor capable of editing all the standard Ogre 1.7 particle effect parameters and is completely FREE!
