Does anyone know how to make rain?
Hey I am making a gloomy game and I felt that the game would be so much better if the game had some really awesome rain. Does anyone know how to make it rain using a particle system?
Can we see your gloomy game? For some reason I'm really curious...
Great post! What you said really helped contribute to the answer of this question....

Here is how i created rain with the following setup:
Render mode is set to Stretched billboard with a length scale of 15.
I used sub emitters to create the splash effect when the rain hits a collision, for example i used a 'plane' (transform).
Here is the setup for the splash effect: http://answers.unity3d.com/storage/temp/28038-drop.png
I hope this helps.
Is that the old unity gui ? I mean in $$anonymous$$e i don't see a similar dialog box. I do not have the optionn you specify to select. :( I just need rain to visualise my projects. That's all. A little bit more help would be appreciated.
@voltran You are using "ellipsoid particle emitter" and above mentioned is "particle system"

No need to reinvent the wheel... Webplayer here: http://kristof.dedene.com/Unity/Rain.html

Note this is not mine... I have tried it out and it works VERY well (seamlessly integrated by dragging prefab onto your player) and includes the splashes from the rain drops.
It is a very simple package and, if nothing else, you can use it as a base to develop your own to your tastes.
Can this be reposted? The link is dead for kristof.dedene.com.

Here is a working link to a great and FREE Asset for making rain in 3d and 2d. Along with collision detection, very impressed by this asset.
