Incredible! It works! I have tried it for so many times. Just saving and
reopening would have done it. Thank you very much! Since I was using XSI
since version 3, I only knew that the sample scene remained the same for
that time span. I didn't know that these shaders were from an elder
version and need different treatment.
But it makes me happy that it finally works. Many thanks for your help!
Kind regards

That example scene was built in an old version of XSI (this one has
been there for as long as I can remember, v1 or 1.5), before they
modified the particle system to its current state.
For you to use it you need to delete the ptype shaders (so the cloud's
shader takes precedence), remove the particle renderer node from the
cloud and plug in the appropriate "legacy" nodes (this is on the
cloud's rtree). Save your scene, open it up again and they will/should
render with ye old shaders...
