AggrorJorn Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 Is there a way to alter the viewing distance for particles? I have this large fire which can be seen from like a half a kilometer (1000 meter) away from the player. However the emitter dissapears after around 50 meters. I tried setting the emitter view distance to far and infinite but that doesn't work for particle emitters apparently. Quote
Canardia Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 I think the particles are childs of the emitter, which are recreated continuously, so you need to set the EntityViewRange recursively in each frame for the emitter.

AggrorJorn Posted September 12, 2010 Author Posted September 12, 2010 Thanks for the reply Lumooja. When you say 'each frame', do you mean that you just have to set it for every emitter or by repeating the entityViewRange in the main loop? emitter = CreateEmitter EntityViewRange(emitter, 500, 1) Quote
