Rendering to picture view issues
I have completed a short animation of letters filling with spheres and it all runs fine, until I try and render to picture view and the animation stops working. Not sure why, but outside picture view the letters fill up fine and look great (pic 1) but in picture view they only fill about a third of the way (pic 2). Is there some setting i’m missing?

the emitters have Birthrate Editor and Birthrate Renderer (for faster editor performance when there are way too many particles but numbers don’t matter so much as here). Increase Birthrate Renderer to match the viewport numbers.

I cranked it up outside the picture viewer, and when I look at the render view it looks fine, am I stuck guessing until I get it? The clip takes a long time to fully render to picture viewer

Just make sure they are equal, otherwise the birthrate of particles in the viewport (editor) will be different than the birthrate during render. In your case you had the Birthrate Renderer at a lower value than the Birthrate Editor, resulting in fewer particles being created during rendering. Set your Birthrate Renderer to 350 to match the Birthrate Editor.

You are very welcome, but I was just expanding on what Brian had said because it seemed that you didn’t quite understand it yet.
