UE4 - Niagara Static Mesh and Surface

[@DavidWKimber]

Great stuff for ppl beginning with Niagara! Also note: You can CTRL+click on a curve to add a point. :)

This guys has some of the best helpful information. This guy knows what he’s talking about!

[@IrritatedEwok]

That ending though "Yeaaahhh looks like Frosty just lost his soul" This is great, thank you!

[@greempark5743]

it should be in Unreal learning course. it is so good tutorial

[@erichance8222]

Great vid, nice and concise!

[@ViridianForests]

This was so useful, thank you so much! :D

There is no sample static mesh in new UE5.1 ? They either changed something or renamed module wrongly or something like that, but you can't add sample static mesh like in this tutorial. Any clues ? Thanks.

[@eldflaug3770]

I would like to know this also...maybe you can go to ,,Particle Spawn" and add new module, under ,,Local Modules" and add the mesh there?

[@esotericgamedev]

legend thank you

[@red4666]

how do you get the particles to inherit the color of the surface they are being spawned on, so we can make a faux point cloud effect?

[@esotericgamedev]

How would you spawn this niagara system at runtime and attach it to any static mesh via blueprints? I.e. can you program the system to take a static or skeletal mesh input, and then activate it from blueprints?

[@kickheavy8982]

I'm trying to do this now! I can't figure it out. I have a static mesh that's already animated in my scene. I simply want to attach particles to it. None of the tutorials show how to do this

[@GameDevAraz]

how to make the particles world space and not local?

[@sams_3d_stuff]

Hello, thank you so much for your tutorials! Is there a way to keep a Niagara particle sim inside a mesh (eg: a closed jar). Thanks again!!

[@gamedevoutpost9270]

I haven't tried to actually, but I'm sure there is. Let me look in to it and get back to you. Collision is probably your answer if you want something bouncy.

[@sams_3d_stuff]

@@gamedevoutpost9270 Thanks for replying. Will comment here again if I succeed.

[@sams_3d_stuff]

@@gamedevoutpost9270 Collision worked just fine! :D

Gracias amigou ,thx a loot , yu should unreal teacher

[@tarekwayne9193]

Heyyy, hope you're well and this msg doesn't find you too busy! How could one get the static mesh to use its own materials/colors(that were already assigned prior)? The component renderer does this, however, then the mesh becomes a particle. I may have missed something obvious(is the only way to create a separate texture sample mimicking the materials of the mesh?) Thx in advance as always💯 Edit: mesh renderer does same as component render, I'm silly... But yeah, same problem... I'm talking about getting a static mesh location to use the materials/colors

[@TorQueMoD]

So I did everything that you did, and it works fine in the editor, but as soon as I try to use the particle system in-game, it's not emitting from the mesh anymore, but from a single point. Any idea how to fix this? I'm using 4.26

[@Check_karo_with_Rishab]

🔥🔥🙏

[@sanketvaria9734]

but particles are not evenly distributed! how do I achieve that?

[@elzemgames]

Will the lessons of using Godot 3 continue? Thank you.

[@gamedevoutpost9270]

They will in about week. Are there topics you're curious about?

[@elzemgames]

@@gamedevoutpost9270 It could be about creating a car object. :)
