You really need help. Lut has never made such a brilliant suggestion, by the way.
/me shoots kain with shotgun until bullets run out, then drop the bloody corpse out a window.
You don't wanna deathmatch me when I've got my Mega-Shotgun out./C999/

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DOOM3!!!
BUT, however, I´ll reply so you don´t make any crap like spamming or double-posting.
FIRST, if the application works on 2D, you´ll have to make a cosine table. If you´re not going to use any API like DDraw or D3D, that´s it. The cosine table is just a matrix with the stored results for a wide range of angles, it´s used because it´s faster than making cos(whatever) or sin(whatever) all the time.
Why do you need this? Because if you´re going to simulate 3D movement of the particles, you need to work with vectors under Newtonian Laws. Since there are just 2 dimensions for you to work, you have to decompose the vectors into it´s components (duh). This is where sin and cos kicks in.
Now, start with a point, and make random vectors out of the it. The 2 angles can be pulled out random, while the module should be fixed or you´ll get different speeds of the particles. (Make a range and it wouldn´t look so bad). Learn how to convert complex numbers from rectangular to polar forms, because you´ll need them for several calculations. Make sure you´ve stored the stuff on a matrix to keep record of the particle positions through time.
Make a loop, and let them fly. You´ll get the "fountain" effect if you don´t refresh. Search for a free library a little faster than Windows Blt instructions, they´re lame.
I´m sure real programmers on this forum could give him nicer ways to make it on software modes. But he should just download a friggin example.

Tsk tsk, you screwed up the very first line in the FAQ.
You can still save face, though, before everyone else takes turns insulting you. Just delete this post and put it in the editing forum instead.
I would help you, but I know about as much about programming as I do gastrointestinal surgery.

Don't want to sound like the annoying little jerk I am, but GET THE HELL OUTTA THIS FORUM ! We're having enough trouble keeping the Doom 3 topic alive already.

Keep working at your gay little fucked-up projects, kain, and soon you will accomplish...NOTHING. Except a bullet in your crotch, if you even have one.
