    Hi there,

    I have been using particle illusion and while it is great for quick little particle flourishes, I want to get to grips with particle world in after effects. I have used it for things like ash and rain and such, but one thing I was trying was a 3d shower of poker chips. Particle world only plays the spinning chip animation from lightwave once.

    Is there a way to change this?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Paul

    with particle world you’ll need to loop the animated chip.

    an easy way to do that is to select the chip footage in the project window/panel and choose file>interpret footage>main. then set the number of times you want it to loop at the bottom of that window.

    I knew it would be something simple like that. Many thanks.
