Does anyone know why the "find line" function in my notepad does not work? Im playing arround with emiters for the first time and its hard to fix things i cant find.

Doesn't work in XP really. You should try an alternative, like notepad++.

notepad++ has line counting, a semi-complex find function (Ctrl+F by default if I'm not mistaken) and allows for zooming in and out with the text with i think ctrl and mousewheel, although that might have been alt or shift i'd have to check.

Only use notepad++, it even has handy Lua help that aligns everything and adds little brackets because it knows how lua is structured.

However I think it might be pertinent to ask if anyone has any other text/ASCII editors that don't suck.

Ctrl + G has always has and still works fine for me.
I use 7, but I used to use Vista. As I said, never encountered any problems.
If you use Vista, get 7, btw. Just such a vast improvement.

You can't CTRL+G if Word Wrap is on. Make sure it's off.

who the hell uses word-wrap for .ini or .lua editing?!

The hell do I know... That's the only possible reason I can think of.

There's nothing wrong with Notepad, in whatever Windows version you're using.
Just make sure Word Wrap's off, like MaximDude said.

Apparently i do, thanks a bunch guys that fixed my problem.

Well guys, i have another problem! This time its with the bomb itself. I hoped to fix it myself to learn from it but the cortex wiki doesnt have very much in the way of explaining Aemitters very well. So i come to you for help here it is, i just cant figure out whats the matter with the materials i use for the emmisions.

As far as I can see, you didn't define a MOSParticle "Air".

Whats that mean?

You're asking CC to use something that isn't there.

I thought that if it was in the materials.ini i could use it. So how can i define the MOSParticle?

Air is a Material and a MOPixel, that's it.
If you want a MOSParticle of air you'll have to make it.
