    Ok to explain this you basically have to load this in powder toy.

    All it is is a wall and LN2
    As soon as you load it, the LN2 changes to NICE!


    I don't know why this happens...
    can someone explain why this happens and why it only happens when it's uploaded... and explain how to stop it from happening...

    This happens because the temperature of particles is rounded when saving, this can cause particle to change state when you save if they're very close to the freezing/melting temperature. The only thing you can do to avoid this is to keep such elements well within safe bounds for the state you want, for LN2, this is between -210C and -190C, so -200C would be best.

    it's pretty hard for me (new) to make something the right setting like 0 preassure and that :/

    Thanks simon... I think I need fire next to it then... because the default temperature is too low...
