Particle Emitter Rotating/attaching

How do you rotate particle emitters?
and while i'm at it, how exactly do you make them visible during certain animations only?
and how do you attach them to a bone(I looked around a bit and thats what people said to do)

All of that can be done with Magos' Model Editor's Node Manger.

But how?
There's a rotation option on the edit node menu, but what does changing the numbers do?
I've tried changing them and nothing happens.
The visibility i sort of understand, but how do you attach them?
Simply editing the pivotpoints doesn't make them move with the model.

 

[Deolrin]

To make particles move with the model, check "Model Space". To attach a particle to a bone, simply make that bone the particle's parent. To rotate a particle, use dummy bones and rotate them in WarShape or WarForger.

ok

....Not very verbose, but its a start.
As for making the bone a parent, please enlighten this idiot more specifically. When creating the emitter, do you right click on the desired bone?

Thanks

That would work, too. But you just have to use the Move Up\Down\Left\Right command to move the emitter under a bone and then move it right.
