  Particular light emitter

  Posted by Demi Fiara on October 31, 2019 at 2:22 am

  Hi all,

  I’m trying to set up a shooting trail of light particles, much like fireworks, with a light emitter.
  But the particles are emitting from both ends (see screenshot).

  I would like to stop the emitter ‘raining’ from the bottom.

  Could someone please help me out?

  Thank you.

  Maybe change the physic model from bounce to air ? Unless you do want your particles to bounce, but I can’t see why.

  Thanks for your advice.

  I want the particles to interact with the floor. Like glowing bits falling on the floor.

  But I tried changing form bounce to air but that wasn’t the cause.

  What’s happening in the picture is not so clear, maybe you can send a video, or another picture of the problem?

  But out of the blue, you may try to get all the velocities of the emitter to 0.
