I am learning with the 3d Platform Tutorial. The particles coming from the Jet Pack are Pink Squares. You can faintly see the image of the fire in each pink square if you look close. How do I fix this?
Ok well I might have a fix. When you say pink, do you mean that they are just pink squares? or do you see the correct fiery look, but its pink instead of red/orange.
Because if the look feels right but the color is pink then try changing the color on the material that you can see when you select the particleEmitter and scroll down to the bottom of the page in the inspector tab.
If it looks like pink squares... Then you should select the particleEmitter, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and there should be a value called materials in the particle renderer component. click on this and if it says fire then its good if it said missing then you need to search fire in the asset search and find the material and then drag it on to the part that says missing.
AND if then it still looks like pink squares, then select the particleEmitter and scroll down to the bottom and look at the material. if it says that the shader is missing then you might have deleted it or your graphics card might not support it.
hope this will help you in some way!
I have the same problem, I have heard that pink means my system is having issues displaying the particles correctly? I am using a 1 year old mac pro with a GeForce GT 120. Is this a hardware problem or a settings issue? PLease advise.
I had the same problem. It turns out that I had added the fire-add material on top of the previously existing empty material, which shows up as a pink square. So what was happening is that both were being rendered. If you change the size field under materials to 1 and change the one material to fire-add it might fix your problem.
Hi Guys
I’ve just had this issue and fixed it! The answer is under Materials, size should be 1 and under this is elements, which at this point isn’t set. To the right you’ll find a small circle, in here you can select the fire element. Enjoy
