In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the fundamentals of the Niagara VFX system, delving into key concepts like particle systems, emitters, modules, and parameters. Our journey will begin with creating and customizing various visual effects, starting with simpler ones like sparks. In future videos, we'll progressively tackle more intricate simulations, such as fire, smoke, and even water.
No prior experience with the Niagara VFX system or Unreal Engine is required to follow along with this tutorial. We will commence from square one, leading you through each step, and offering lucid explanations and hands-on examples throughout the process.

I've been searching for a week for something like this! Even going through the unreal documentation, I didn't get this much depth and detail in bite sized chunks That's easily digestible, thank you so much for this, you can show somebody how to do something, but it takes a master teacher to teach. Furthermore Epic needs to hire you!!!

[@sarkamari]

Haha Thank you mate. I work for Disney. Equally awesome if you ask me. ;)

[@TacoBear_Studios]

@@sarkamari Yes, Sir! Did Disney buy shares in Epic? then you should ask if you can write their documentation.

[@Ninjibpsy]

Wow, Niagara makes so much sense now and is way easier to use than I thought 😂 This hour video saved me countless hours for sure! Thank you for these thorough tutorials.

[@kickheavy8982]

Thank you for being so clear and easy to understand! So many Unreal tutorials are an absolute NIGHTMARE to get through and hard to understand but this one is clear and concise. The 55 minutes went by very quickly. Thanks again

[@sarkamari]

Great to hear 🙏

[@jbibianjr]

Just started getting into Unreal recently. Very welcome series, thank you!

[@LiMaking]

This was fantastic. Pure information, not too long or too short. No derailing and very short, clear explanations. love it. I'll be watching more of your stuff. Thank you so much!

[@sarkamari]

Great to hear

[@lordkiller977]

This is the best tutorial I ever saw in my whole f**cking professional life! haha. Thanks, friend.

[@sarkamari]

Thank you my friend

[@kmanL3G3N3D]

I've been looking to learn Niagra for years now, and I'm so glad I watched this! Please keep these Niagra tutorials coming.

[@sarkamari]

Amazing to hear

[@3DArtAR]

Perfect, easy, and straightforward video tutorial, thank you. 💙

Another high quality tutorial keep it up my man

[@miss.antidote]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@mcdk4716]

Oh my gawd… so I fixed the issue and I was able to bring back my scale… it’s fixed for now but let’s see what my actions have in store…. Very frustrating

[@romainthereal]

This channel deserves more visibility, the content is incredible and easy to understand !

[@sarkamari]

Spread the love my friend 🙏🏼

[@savingthewow5792]

Thank you for the very clear step by step. I'm totally new to creating stuff with Niagara, so this was very helpful!

[@sarkamari]

Great to hear

[@industrialfilmvrdesign6421]

Thank you for the great video!

[@PBPVIDEO]

Thank you for this information

[@brunaottoni605]

Amazing tutorial, thank you so much!

[@sarkamari]

You're welcome, Bruna

[@edioliveira_]

I had to come here to comment on this. I've watched several tutorials teaching Niagara, but none, NONE, were as good as yours. This is pure gold, my friends. Thank you for helping us. How can I help you in return? It's the least I can do!!

[@sarkamari]

The fact that you're happy is enough rewards for me! Thank you my friend

[@edioliveira_]

@@sarkamari I just joined the community. Could you take a course on how to create texture for Niagara VFX?

[@sarkamari]

Will do

[@CelestialKappa]

God damn I love your videos. One stop shop for all my UE tutorials. Thank you so much.

[@sarkamari]

Glad to hear this. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@tarekhammad1232]

Thank you very much 😊❤

[@KambizAsadzadeh]

That was perfect Reza! Thank you for sharing :)

[@Se-wangKIM]

thanks for the awesome video~!

[@rudeloo2021]

OMG I loooooove your tone of voice, it's so newbie friendly!!!

[@sarkamari]

Haha maybe because i am a newbie myself 😉

[@silp7777]

큰 도움이 되었습니다. 꼼꼼하게 설명을 해주셔서 감사합니다.

[@sarkamari]

영상이 도움이 되셨다니 정말 기쁘네요

[@gdsdi]

This is fantastic Thank you 📿🕊

[@LazyDev27]

A lot of this is much easier to understand thanks to my blender experience. Like the timeline editor is the same, keyframes seem similar, playback and all that. Viewport and node graphs, the Rcurves the same as in Blender same as the colorgraph except they're also just nodes. Some differences between how the modifiers and nodes work. But it's almost easier to understand than Blender is.

[@michaelfae]

Bruh I could not for the life of me understand Blender's node system. But this one is better

[@lz4090]

Looking forward to learning niagara. I hope you have a tutorial also on how to optimize certain usecase for games. thank you

[@sarkamari]

Coming up soon

[@TacoBear_Studios]

34:00 Oh, and by the way you can drag and drop particles from your content drawer into the system now!

[@sarkamari]

Yes after 5.3 you actually can drag and drop 🙌🏼👌🏼

[@cyrillimoges9372]

Thanks

[@arjungowda6452]

Thank y❤u

[@mcdk4716]

So I was able to unblur the Particle by disabling float from curve in scale color under particle update then I raised the scale Alpha from 1 to 3+ I chose 9. But I no longer have the float from curve… I will continue with the tutorial and just hope my action don’t trickle down. This is really frustrating if anyone know please reply

[@BecomeMesculineWithAditi]

Please create a full detailed Playlist of Niagara. Noob to Pro just like the material Playlist

[@sarkamari]

Way more in the works. Do check the channel this Monday :)

[@kmanL3G3N3D]

So Particle Update is if you want a delay before the action? Like a bomb exploding after 3 seconds of the mesh being spawned?

[@sarkamari]

The delay happens within the creation of the particles. Right? ;) If you wish to delay the particles you target the emitter spawn and/or sometimes particle spawn based on your given scenario

[@AZeroEight]

At around 34:00 you say you cannot drag the emitter into the system but in my case it works - probably something that was added in later unreal versions?

[@sarkamari]

Yes. Was added in the later versions Although dragging system is always recommended.

[@mcdk4716]

Rizza why is my particle sooooo blurry it’s frustrating. I’m still watching this one video because no matter what I do my partial is ending up blurry idk what to do

[@projectalpha22_va]

Hey there! I have an odd question for you. Would you be okay with someone taking this tutorial and reteaching it in a condensed format? For free, mind you, I have no intention of monetization, I just would like to provide a quicker version of this tutorial for people who might have knowledge of other particle systems such as Houdini's or Blender's. You would be properly credited in the video of course as the originator of the information. I know that technically I probably wouldn't have to reveal my hand on this since this is a very basic particle setup, but I frequently watch your work and would be remiss if I were to take advantage of what you teach freely to others (something I'd like to do myself)! I appreciate this tutorial so much, thank you for your diligent work!

[@sarkamari]

As long as you spread the love about this channel and help others to grow I have no objection.

[@projectalpha22_va]

@@sarkamari Absolutely, appreciate it, fam!

[@DATECStudio]

merci agha vali kheily keshesh midi tozihato jesaratan

[@sarkamari]

ozr khahi mikonam lol

[@CreativeDen007]

Bro i need help, I am not even getting the fx option on view mode, please help!!!!

[@user-ng3sx4ev1w]

Is it possible to specify the direction in which each particle will move using a mathematical formula?

[@sarkamari]

You can do something close to what you described using blueprints. Sadly it falls beyond what I am explaining in this beginner video.

[@mcdk4716]

Ok I think… A BIG I THINK I found out what’s wrong with it. I think the problem is that the partial is not looping itself once it plays out once it dies out period doesn’t reply again and again… but that weird because I followed everything you did even when you gave the alternatives to certain choices I did it with you when u deleted I deleted it. Wrd to myself bruh I followed everything but I think for sure that’s what’s wrong with it… that it’s not looping itself both in game view and creator view. So how do I loop my seen. Do I go back to the Emitter Update / Loop behavior / then press infinite? Because you had Loop Behavior on Once unless during the cut seen it was changed. I’m going to try Ching the loop behavior and let you know if it fixed it. Seems logical to me but we’ll see lmao

[@mcdk4716]

When I woke up this morning I didn’t even want to look at my pc just because of this part 36:15. I woke this morning didn’t even touch or look at my pc up until when I commented before expressing my frustration. I’ve watched this video over and over again it’s ridiculous. I just closed my PC I can’t even look at it right now and I won’t even bother looking at it until I can pass this one part 36:15. I’ve tried everything I think should do (which is nothing because I don’t know nothing) and it still doesn’t work. I tried to search for a tutorial that could fix my issue but there’s not one single video about it. Somebody help me out please

[@AZeroEight]

If you pay close attention you see the "state" of the emitter is set to "infinite" - the default is "once" therefore you don't see it as the lifetime has already passed.

[@mcdk4716]

Omg I’ve been restarting over and over agin because of this one part 36:15 when u press game view your partial shows up when I press game view nothing happens. I try to press play located up top in green but when I do that it actually puts me in game mode first person perspective. It’s annoying me. I’ve been stuck right at this moment for two days wtf anyone know why my particular doesn’t play out automatically like the tutorial? I would greatly appreciate it.

[@AZeroEight]

[@johnvelazquez9854]

When I created the Niagra System from right clicking on the Emitter and went into the newly created Niagra node...it kept giving me an Error "The Emitter is using Dynamics Bounds mode but only using Emitter Sourced renderers. Please update the Emitter or System Properties otherwise binds may be incorrect" Haven't been able to figure it out.

[@sarkamari]

Change the boundes to fixed. If you’re using gpu, dynamic bounds won’t work.

[@MuhammadArshad-oj4fr]

Hi, Good Day am very pleased with your master classes, are you giving any personal training, If yes I wish to join

[@sarkamari]

Sadly not atm. Too many spinning plates

[@mcdk4716]

O MY GAWD… that’s all I gotta say🤣🤣🤣 ayo don’t do that shii again b… if it’s done on the cut seen let us know lmao I’ve been dead ass stuck for two days smh

[@markstacey6082]

i dont have a quarter of what he has in his list when he right clicks....let alone FX ???
