How do I make the sparkles from Sparkle Spawner fall from the ceiling instead of rising up from the floor?.

Set the SPAWNCEILING flag on the spawner actor so it becomes "attached" to the ceiling, and use negative z velocity values when spawning the particles through A_SpawnItemEx .

Okay, I've done that and they seem to be working fine...but I am still curious about something. Are some sparkles supposed to fall/rise slow while others fall fast?. I'm just wondering...

Yes, they are, as the initial velocity of the particles is randomized when spawned.
