I'm sorry, but I'm having the same problem. Where in the scripts is this error located?

Look in "server\scripts\chimneyFire.cs" (if it's there) Mainly, check out the scripts in the server\scripts folder as that's where the particles are called from.

It seems like all the smoke files are labeled properly. They all read "~/data/shapes/particles/smoke", but the world editor still won't open up. Odd :/

Check your console.log file. It's a text file in the same folder as the exe. (open it with any text editor) It should tell you where your problem is.

Does your game folder have a different name? There are several instances (especially particles & lights) where starter.fps is hard-coded as part of the path. You'll need to find those and change it to your directory name.
