this was really well done

Really great tutorial!!

so cool!

Great video. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the tutorial!. It would be interesting and quite helpful to see these effects already exported and seeing a resource consumption test, since as a newbie I have no idea

I need to see this on a colossal titan!!

Love it!! Can we paint only arms for exemple?

Yes but requires slightly different setup

Omgosh i been looking for this. Does this work on a green screen video subject? If so what changes do i need to make.

Question how to have better resolution for smoke/fire in render?

im on 5.3 and have the same issue of the FX moving as well

That is great

@RedefineFX Thanks for the nice tutorial, however it seems to be not working in the viewport when the NS is added as child of mesh via character blueprint. I have already enabled plugins niagara fluid, cache, etc. Set the NS to auto activate in blueprint, it shows there within the blueprint but not in viewport. Any help would be great. Thanks again.

Hey bud. I love your tutorials they're so straight forward and clear but I have problems with this one. Everything looks fine in the editor window but will not appear on the map, even if I start the game no niagra appears. Other niagra effects pop up straight away so it's something within this blueprint. I've triple checked everything. I'm dumbfounded. Any advice. Greatly appreciated. Also I signed up to your course 🎉

@kickheavy8982

Have you figured out how to do this on a static mesh yet? It's exactly what I'm trying to do now. Most tutorials only show how to set it up on a skeletal mesh. That doesn't really help if you have a static mesh already animated in your scene that you simply want to attach your particle system to.

Is it safe to assume that this is 5.3 specific? tried to emulate on current project which is on 5.2 and was fine until I connected the Niagara system to the skeletal mesh. it attached, I clicked none. and it just refuses to render in the scene. cannot for the life of me figure out why, also, as daft as it sounds, the positioning of the FX keeps moving. if I put it to the exact same as the actor, it doesn't remain. even though its attached?
