  • Making emitters last longer

    Hi, i’m a noobie, and as such, i expect this is a very noobie question. Sorry, i have searched and looke through getting started and some tutorials, but have not yet found the answer to this ‘probably very basic question’.
    How can i extend the emitters life on stage?

    I would like to have moving clouds in the background of a movie i’m making, Will add the particle illusion render of clouds during post processing in video editor, using chromakeying.
    The trouble is, my cloud dissappears after about 250 frames, and i would like it to last 600 frames.
    Thanks for any help. 🙂

    Well, there ya go. After a bit more practice things started to dawn on me. The hierarchy window down the side has the properties and the settings are in the timetrack area. doh.
    Now i see it. Makes a lot of sense. Nice. 🙂
    Awesome program
