Partical System is not visible

Questions & Answers
1

Hello,

Does anyone have any idea why my particle system is not able to become visible on Top of any other game object (floor, trees, etc)? Particle alone: alt text

Particle above some platform: alt text

My particle inspector: alt text

I have tried to attach a Sprite Renderer component to my particle system prefab and increased its Order In Layer to become on top of my other game plaftorms, but it doesn’t seem to help. I would appreciate some explanation for this as i would like to use some particle systems i have as game animations for some monster deaths, i plan to instantiate the particle system prefab once the monster dies.

Thank in advance.

It’s dangerous to go alone, take this:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class ParticleSortingOrder : MonoBehaviour {

    public int order;
    public string layer;

    private ParticleSystemRenderer rend;

    public void Awake()
    {
        Set();
    }
    public void OnValidate()
    {
        Set();
    }

    public void OnEnabled()
    {
        Set();
    }
    private void Set()
    {
        if (rend == null)
            rend = GetComponent<ParticleSystemRenderer>();
        rend.sortingLayerName = layer;
        rend.sortingOrder = order;
    }
}

Also check your camera depths (particle camera may be behind another one).
