Layer emitter, trapcode particular
I was trying to do a simple particle effect where the particles form a logo, here is the video I used as a tutorial, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCRm_50vAJA&t=215s
For whatever reason it refuses to work. Everything goes fine until I set the emitter from point to layer (3:22 in the video) , when I try to select the layer from which to emit the particles nothing happens. I checked all of the settings a dozen times, reinstalled and uninstalled Trapcode, cleared cache, played with the seed, and tried different layers in different files. I can probably send the file over E-mail if necessary.

Hi Ray, I suspect you probably need to set the birth rate extremely/ridiculously high – it emits from the whole layer including the alpha.

So would that be the particles/second? I have that set to 25000 and I’m still not seeing any particles.

Have a try at more – he suggests 300.000!

Yeah still nothing. And I mean no particles being generated at all, not invisible ones or anything like that because my pre render is too fast for there to be any particles, certainly not 300,000.
