  using animated shape

  Posted by Joeyboy on May 15, 2006 at 7:30 pm

  hi,

  how do i change the shape of a particle to an animated one? i’m using the bacteria emitter and would like to change the particle shape to an animated germ. i rendered it in after effects but when i tried to change the shape, it loads them one by one instead of a whole sequence. i want it to load like the toon emitter, the one with the walking mouse shape.

  thanks in advance!

  Make sure the images are named filename_xxxx.tga (or whatever the correct extension is for the image format you want to use) where xxxx is the sequence number (0000, 0001, etc.)

  Then when you select one of the images, it will ask if you want to use the sequence.

  If you’ve done all this, then make sure that the frame speed slider is not set to “off”.

  Alan.
