Once the cloud is getting simmed by a particleOp you can't really change the pType. A trick might be to make a second particle cloud that is not simmed but rather controlled by a scripted op. You could copy all the necessary data from the simmed cloud to the non-simmed cloud using the scripted Op and still retain the ability to change ptypes. Not quick or easy :P

Hi Joe. Digging up a really old thread here.....
I too am trying to use this at the moment, and it's kind of key to whole system I need to use to populate a scene. Did you ever manage to find a solution to this?
I've tried it both from a particle event, where it does absolutely nothing, and a scripted operator which gives me a huge schizophrenic mess of unusable rubbish.....
Cheers,
DAN

Os ot possible to change the pType of a particle from an event script? I tried setting the TypeID, but this had no effect. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
