Question by xEnOnn · Mar 18, 2013 at 03:10 PM · particlesshurikeneffects

Scaling the whole Shuriken effects?

I am trying out some free effects from the asset store made with the Shuriken system but I realise I couldn't change the size of the effects. By size, I don't mean the particle size but rather the whole size of the effect. The effects currently are too small to be seen in the camera. I want to scale up the size of the whole effect so that it is visible.

How can I scale up the size of an effect made with the Shuriken system?

I believe this is a duplicate UA post. The answer to the other guy's question seems like the answer to yours (the other guy wanted to decrease the emitter size, should be quite simple to do the opposite).

I have seen that. The answer in that question was to reduce the size of the fbx model of the object which the effect is used with. In my case, I don't wish to resize my fbx model. I only want to resize the whole effect.

Ah I see. I'm not entirely familiar with Shuriken, but it looks like in these 2 posts they talk about modifying the emitter size. Looks like they have plans to support it via transform.scale but haven't gotten around to actually doing it yet.

There are several plugins which can do what you want. There are some for free, just google search for it, but in my opinion the cartoon fx easy editor is the best. https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/4215 It scales not only size values but also velocities etc. and the results are nearly perfect. It's also only 5 bucks, totally worth the amount of work you save by using it.

Just select your particle system (the parent if you have multiple for one effect) put your size multiplier in and hit the Scale Size button. Done :) alt text

P.S.: i have nothing to do with the author, i'm recommending this because this is in my opinion truly the most essential plugin for everything shuriken/effect related.
