ColorLess Particles ?

GarromOrcShaman

Hi everyone.These are my particles : They are colorless despite my (assigned) color : Do I doing something wrong or it is bug and I should report it ? by the way .. I became pretty active on forums, don't you think I'm annoying ?

Thanks -Garrom

Haven't used the particls in godot so I can't answer that, however...

Huh? More activity on the forums is a good thing™.

I think you have to do follow steps similar to those posted in this issue on the Godot repository.

I don't think so! :smile:

Well, I'm glad we settled this down, I checked out Git repository what @TwistedTwigleg mentioned but I'm using only particle material resource. Where i need to put spatial material resource ?

By right clicking on the particle material you should be able to convert the particle material to shader material to be able to do more with it, and just as with spatialMaterial, only the things you have enabled in the particleMaterial will be converted into a shader template for you.

See this post.

Well. Looks like i figured it out... I was missing one material. It was under "Geometry" section so I thought it will give geometry and material to emitter itself. Take look at this.. Now to the question... Why i need two materials for single particle emitter ? That is SO confusing, Ouch, my brain hurts. That is so damn confusing... But now seriously, Why it is "particle material" when is another material required ? Why simply don't merge functionality of spatial material to particle material and use only one ? It will be very clear and well understandable.

One controls shading/lighting logic the other the particle emission/physics logic. In other words, one thing is the generator the other is the tesselator/rasteriser.
