Making gun fire particle

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

Hi , I’m searching for a particle for when my gun fires in the game. I’m looking for something as realistic as possible. unfortunately I couldn’t find any prefabs or assets.

Fire particles in standard assets package is also good, but they are very slow , if I can somehow make them quickly start and destruct they are also a good option.

I’ll appreciate if you can help me with this

thanks very much

Unity Answers does not find or make assets for you. We answer specific technical questions to help you make your own. There are tutorials exploring both the legacy ParticleEmitter and the new ParticleSystem. If you like Fire from Standard Assets, start and play with the settings. Disable the Inner and Outer core, and then one by one play with each setting to see how you can mold the result to your needs.

Did I ask someone to make or find assets for me? these kinds of aggressive comments are really bad for community

For speed, you should look into object pooling (takes a lot of time to create/instantiate): http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/modules/beginner/live-training-archive/object-pooling

Just lower the time that the fire particle stays active. Lower its max lifetime under the particle settings and this should do the trick.

Thanks very much, I couldn't find max lifetime in particle inspector, is it in inspector or somewhere else? thanks very much
