Hi USF,
Yeah, it is possible (see my vase fountain ;) ).
Simply add more particle effects (for particle effects ensure you always got a end and a start effect point).
So, it works exactely like adding one point, just add some more in the importer.
Does this help?

USF, the particle points need different names. So number them:
end01/start01
end02/start02 , etc.
Btw. didn't know you use the modified importer version, so my directions were wrong ;)

No prob! Do you have a pic yet? The first one looks great already, so I can't wait to see the finished gate ;)

BTW: Usf geek are you going to add more fire on the small platforms on the side?

Of course, That's why I needed to know how to apply multiple effect points In the first place.

After you get your effect points correct you will probably want to add some low level lights at the same spot cause partial effects don't give off light.

I believe that some particle effects do illuminate- you just need to pick the right one (like the one used for the snake torch lamps). The regular light effects won't flicker...

Yes, they do. You need to add a torch modifier though :p
