Lightning Particle/Weather Effect?

[XxInsaneAsylumxX]

So, I haven't managed to find it anywhere, but I'm looking for a lightning particle/weather effect. I thought I had one, but it doesn't work for some reason.
Maybe I haven't been digging enough, but then again I've been more focused on my art.
Does anyone know where I can find lightning? Maybe with thunder sound effects as well?
EDIT: Is there a money rain particle? I would LOVE if that were a thing. if not, could someone make it for me?

I found this~

I can't actually see the pictures at the moment, but it says there's a lightning particle in there. Hopefully it's the right thing xD

A money rain particle would be interesting, but I'm not very experienced with particles and such. :3 Good luck with your searches.

I am actually looking for one too, and the links don't work anymore which being outdated 4 years, I can see why. XD

Oh xD haha sorry, good luck anyway~

The only thing I have for you is the code for a lightning-like particle I made a while back, although the picture for it is horrid. Perhaps you can make use of it? Otherwise I can try again at finding a good, free photo to use for it and send it to you if you wish. I'm kinda busy, but maybe I can try that...

Lightning.particle code

   affector DirectionRandomiser

      keep_velocity   true

   affector LinearForce

   }
}

You can probably mess with the coding to your liking, too, like under that "emitter ring" thing... I never tried it, but it looks like the spot.

Thanks for the help.
Hugrf, Im not quite sure what to do with those codes, but Im sure theyre helpful. Im unfamiliar with codes.

Ahhh, let me try to explain... If you need anymore information, I'd be happy to help as I already am. ^^

Go into Feralheart>media>particles and open up one of the .particle files. Replace the code with the one I showed you.

Also, as I forgot to mention earlier, you need a material file too.

Matieral code.

material lightnings01
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         lighting off
         scene_blend add
         depth_write off
         fog_override true
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         texture_unit
         {
            texture Lightning01.png
         }
      }
   }
}

To make the image show up on the particle, name it "Lightning01.png" or whatever you put next to the line "texture" in the above code.

If you're having any trouble, I can make my own lightning particle into a download, but again, beware of the horrifying image on it. ^^'

Also, if you want to rename the material (Look at line "matieral lightnings01" at the very top of the code I provided in this post.) you'll have to change the mat I had just mentioned, as well as the line below to match eachother.

Part of the particle file

  quota   10000
   material   lightnings01
   particle_width   25
   particle_height   25
   cull_each   false
   renderer   billboard
   sorted   false
   local_space   false
   iteration_interval   0
   nonvisible_update_timeout   0
   billboard_type   oriented_common
   billboard_origin   center
   billboard_rotation_type   texcoord
   common_direction   0 -1 0
   common_up_vector   0 1 0
   point_rendering   false
   accurate_facing   false

Hope I /somewhat/ made sense?
