    When i try to move an point emitter around the screen , i get edges because of the keyframes.The animation must be very fast and wobbly.So how can i Make the “Edges” Go?

    Thanks.

    What do you mean by edges? Do you mean that the motion is in straight lines? If you want to curve the path the emitter moves along, you can alt-click on the points to turn them into curves, or right-click on the emitter and choose Record Position to record the movements of your mouse as animation.

    The animation has got to be very fast and in order to create curves you need lots of keyframes to create a smooth curve but there’s so few Keyframes.

    The only suggestion I can give since the animation is moving that fast, is to double the length of the animation, then import it into your editing program as 60 fps. Then you’ll at least have an extra keyframe to play with between each of those points at the end.

    If you do try that, remember to double your Life and halve your Velocity.

    r-click in the graph of any property that has keyframes (including the position graph, which you get by selecting the emitter name in the hierarchy), select “scale”, then select the “x-values” and scale by 200% or whatever.
