using a Gani as a particle

I cant seem to get any emitter to use a gani as a particle. nothing appears on screen. Even ganis that are nothing but a single frame with a definite single image.
graalbible says the correct syntax is:

PHP Code:


			
emitter.particle.ani = "idle";

is there some attribute I'm not setting?

the emitter in its entirety.

PHP Code:


			
//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated()

  {

  if (graalversion < 4) return false;

  this.visible = false;

  with (findimg(200))

    {

    layer = 2;

    emitter.delaymin = .05;

    emitter.delaymax = .05;

    emitter.nrofparticles = 6;

    // Basic particle attributes

    emitter.particle.lifetime = 2;

    //   emitter.particle.image = "g4_particle_spark.png";

    emitter.particle.ani = "idle";

    emitter.particle.mode = 1;

    emitter.particle.alpha = 0.99;

    //    emitter.particle.zoom = .2;

    emitter.autorotation = true;



    // Movement

    emitter.particle.angle = pi/4;

    emitter.particle.speed = 8;

    emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "angle", "replace", 2*pi, 0);

    emitter.addlocalmodifier("range", 0, 2, "zoom", "add", .8 , .8);

    emitter.addlocalmodifier("range", 0, 2, "speed", "add", 8, 12);

  }

}

I messed around with it trying to use playerlook and such, but couldn't get it to work either.

It will be fixed in the next version.
