Zero or negative particles are not recommended

by Tim Newsome-Ward · in Torque X 2D · 11/03/2010 (4:11 pm) · 2 replies

Hey all,

Its me again! Anyone come across this issue? After building the particle emitter in the editor, I run the game and get this error:

"Zero or negative particles are not recommended"

There are no zero or negative values within my emitter graph?

Cheers

Check you particle base lifetime verse you timeline effects. For example say the Particle Life Base is set to 1 sec. Then you set Size X Lifetime curve to zero or less prior to time 1 (eg @ time .5sec, x size =0). At that time in the lifetime of the particle(.5 secs) it would have a dim x of zero. P.S. this works on a PC even tho a warn is shown, but will crash your 360 sometimes.

Hope it helps,
