Question by Huy137 · May 14, 2018 at 03:10 AM · particlesystemscalingparent transformnegative

Stretched Particle with negative parent transform value

Hi, here is my problem, I have a particle system attach to a 2d character. When the character use scaling -1 to change his face's direction, the particle did follow the scaling but its size look different from it original direction.

  • The particle use "Stretched Billboard"

  • The particle did have scaling mode put to" Hieachy" so it did follow the direction.

  • The particle did use "velocity over time" so negative scaling may be affect the velocity which make the effect look different for each direction.

=>As you can see in this image:

"A" was original direction,

"B" was -1 direction alt text

Do you have any idea to make those look the same for both direction without change "Stretched Billboard" render mode?

Do not use hierarchy scaling mode but local because negative scale value can cause some weird issues to the particle system.

But I'll need the "hierarchy" scaling mode to make the particle follow the face direction of the character. Local wont change direaction of the particle when my character turn the other way with "-1" scaling.

$$anonymous$$y problem is to make particle follow 2d character's face direction (left and right) without any "weird" transformation happen for both directions.

$$anonymous$$ay be some one can suggest me another way to change 2d character face ins$$anonymous$$d of "-1" tranformation method

Try using Inherit Velocity module to allow the particles follow the direction of the object movement.

Thank for the suggestion. I've try but it didn't work. the problem may not because of velocity since in both case( "1" and "-1" parent transform) the praticle spread at the same velocity.

The mess up thing is how it look different when I change the parent's transform to "-1". In the image above you can see it look a lot thinner than its original size.

The only way I can think is use ""Billboard" ins$$anonymous$$d of "Stretched Billboard", the size problem solved but nice spread effect from "Stretched Billboard" is gone too.
