Questions about Shuriken.

Unity Engine
1

Sorry for being ill-informed, but I was playing with the particle system and find it extremely limiting. I’ve heard of shuriken existing in the asset store, but is it an official release? I found an official page on the website, @;

http://unity3d.com/unity/editor/shuriken

It claims shuriken existing with Unity 3.5, but I’ve yet to download 3.5, because of all the errors devs have been reporting about it.

So my question is, how do you get shuriken and does it replace the basic particle system?

Shuriken is part of Unity 3.5. If you don’t have Unity 3.5 then you can’t use it.

Is there a migration guide? Im going through a tutorial on building a campfire: http://youtu.be/Sg7j8y89wHY and am guessing some of the upgrade settings from the old particle system, but there is no one-to-one mapping between features here.
