Hey guys!
How would I go about creating particles orbit around a sphere like this?
Assuming the sphere you are referring to is the temple runner, you could create a particle system on the ‘sphere’.
-Set speed to 0
-Start size to random between two constants ; 1.2 and 2
-Start rotation to random between two constants ; 0 and 360
- Set Emission Rate to 1
-Change the shape to box, with 0, 0 ,0. - Chance Velocity over Lifetime to ; 0, 0.2, 0
-Set Color over Lifetime to a gradient where the beginning and end are 0 opacity, and the middle is 100 percent opacity.
-Change Rotation Over Lifetime to random between -90 and 90 or 0 and 180
-Set up Renderer like this :
Render mode : Mesh
Mesh : Sphere or Lowpoly Sphere or Cylinder.
Material : RimSpark
Make a material named RimSpark or whatever, make it an additive particle material using the above image or something like it.
With a bit of tweaking you should be able to get something similar and to your liking.
Here is what I made :
