trapcode particle to motion path

Greetings,

Hopefully this can be answered without me giving too much info.

I tried setting setting up particular to follow a motion path via a YT video and I am getting strange results.

I'm using AE 13.2.0.49  (2014)

I create the solid\particle layer at default settings.

I create a light named Motion Path

I create a default camera (not sure if this is necessary but...)

I set some animation on the light

On particle effect i go to physics>air and set motion path to 1

The problem is that it seems the ""death" point is following the path rather than the birth point.
