Unreal Engine 5 Mist Particle System

[@Yokitolakaka]

There is a node in the material blueprint called depthfade, put that in the opacity pin and set the fade distance to whatever you like the result to avoid the sharp edge you see at the end of the video

[@CodeLikeMe]

thank you for letting me know. I will try that

[@Yokitolakaka]

@@CodeLikeMe No worries, a good starting value is from 50 to 75, but you can play with it to get your desired look.

[@carlossuarez9272]

That suggestion work perfectly fine. Thanks for the useful tip and CodeLikeMe for a wonder Tutorial.

[@maiskorrel]

Thanks!

[@peryschlachter]

Yeah, thanks to both of you my island is now a mystical one !

[@JambelBandel]

For me, this method ended up with something more similar to clouds instead of mist or fog, so in order to fix that I used a divider (0/50) just before the emissive color output, that made the smoke a bit more soft and with an overwall better result.

[@CodeLikeMe]

nice!

[@patrickking8355]

0.2 in depthfade work form me to make the mist(adjust the height of the msit for more realism

[@markhamilton2885]

Awesome thanks for taking the time to share this - fixed my mist and let's me adjust the density perfectly :)

[@kudjo24]

First tutorial where everything is logical, slowly shown, and not annoying. Great work, you should pin that depthfade node comment just in case as that exactly fixed your problem in my node setup for this. Thanks!

[@tara.rankoth]

My time is saved, Thilina. I'm grateful.

[@CodeLikeMe]

:D

[@CycleverseGames]

That is very cool. This would make a good effect for a spell or smoke bomb where you need it very localized. I could see adding an exposed variable that thickens the fog. As the player moves closer or farther from a world location the fog density changes.

You're really good, thank you

[@CodeLikeMe]

welcome

[@semirukiya5308]

It generates a lot of particles. And with translucency overlapping so much, it's a rather demading fog, right? Cheers!

[@chid4438]

you are so genius

[@eitanozeri6647]

How can i make the mist move with the player?

[@CodeLikeMe]

you can update the mist emitter location with player's location. For this to work, make sure the particles are emitted in world space. I covered this in my rain tutorial, But I don't remember if I did the same for this too.

[@niklastsalkos]

Anyone know how to make the mist move in a certain axis only? ie it simulates flying in the clouds, but the clouds making the illusion that the player is flying?

[@zebaxtianvr]

Thank you so much

[@patrickking8355]

Thanks for help me!

[@glitchman9579]

Thanks so much for sharing that! but it causes a lot of light complexity and severe performance loss and I guess there's no way optimizing that without quality loss

[@Foudyl]

i push the loopd duration 1000,spawn rate 200, lifetime min and max 20, uniform sprite size to 4000 and max 5000, and on the detail size the scale at 20, 20, with z : 0.001 very nice global fog translucid for valley , mountain etc... thks for the tuto 🙂

[@CodeLikeMe]

Welcome! share a screenshot if possible. Would love to see in a real environment

[@LeandroOliveira3D]

Hi. Is it possible to make lights interact with that particles?

[@CodeLikeMe]

Can you elaborate?

[@Nanu_art]

Video was great sir thank you so much Can we change its visibility...if yes please tell me sir

[@CodeLikeMe]

do you mean opacity? or completely disable it?

[@Nanu_art]

@@CodeLikeMe opacity of mist...some visibility of mist should lower

[@Nanu_art]

How to do that sir?

[@PabloYaos]

Hey, anyone else having a problem with the smoke particles moving around when you rotate or move the camera ? I can't seem to find how to fix this.

[@CodeLikeMe]

do you mean like particle is attached to camera?

[@MaxwellPublishing]

Why can't I see the mist in my map? I made it 1:1 as you did, but when I plop it in the map, it's as if nothing was added.

[@CodeLikeMe]

are you in low scalability settings?

[@SurferXGhost1293]

Does it work for Movie Render Queue?

[@acsomiT]

Thank you! One question. In the material and Niagara window the Smoke looks white but in the Editor it looks black. Any idea why?

[@CodeLikeMe]

Lighting conditions in the level?

[@acsomiT]

@@CodeLikeMe Ok, I figured out. I have the sun at 100000 lux and the emissive power of the fog material its to week for this high value and its resulting in rendering black. I added a Parameter and a Multiply node to conect it to the Emmisive Color node chain and cranked up the value. Now the fog its white! 💪

[@oskaroskar9589]

whats the point of connecting 0 to the add and then to the lerp instead of connecting it directly? and what does the -0.5 connected to the add gives us? I greet, Oscar.

[@CodeLikeMe]

can you mark the timestamp you are referring to?

[@oskaroskar9589]

5:41@@CodeLikeMe

[@ChuckPalomo]

Is there a way to still use translucent without the flickering bug? Additive uses colour as opacity.

[@elliein3d]

Hi, did you ever discover a solution to this?

[@PhatNguyen-cu2bx]

Uhm. Code, You have a one page or group in patreon or facebook. beacause I still don't quite understand how to fix the rope swing and zipline.

[@CodeLikeMe]

there is a dedicated discord group for patrons to discuss issues

can you help me i have squares, like the fog is delimited....

[@CodeLikeMe]

perhaps you missed the subuv settings

[@hotbergina]

@@CodeLikeMe hey, i learnt that i have to set the number of tiles od the image the same number the image has arrays...thing like that. sO i put 8 x 8 and its good

[@da_visual]

Why I cannot see the smoke on my side? Is it because I don't have RTX?

[@CodeLikeMe]

RTX doesn't matter here

[@KavUE22]

Is it possible to change the color of the mist? Making it green or red? Also, thank you very much for this tutorial :)

[@CodeLikeMe]

of course, you can change it in colors settings of niagara emitter

[@KavUE22]

@@CodeLikeMe Thank you, much appreciated :)

[@AndikaPratamaW]

Hi, is this support on mobile? does this can be optimize? Anyway thanks for the video!

[@CodeLikeMe]

Always there is room for optimization. And niagara does support mobile devices. But personally i don't have much experience on that regard

[@PhatNguyen-cu2bx]

YOUR TPS AND ALS SHOTTER CAN COMBINE THIS. :?

As a Request: Please try to make Different Magic Particle Hit Effect using NS. I really appreciate that.

Am i the only one who had "grid patterns" on the fog...?
