[SOLVED] Getting FX Samples / Imported to Work?

[kevinEval]

When I try to ADD certain add-on FX samples: fire1, fire 2, for instance...

I see the wiregrid bounding box moving, but I cannot get anything to display correctly (the actual effect is either just showing standard particles with no graphics if I enable the Root Dummy Node, or nothing at all). The child nodes (the actual FX) are not displaying... I increased spawn rate and changed a few parameters to try to solve the issue.

 

I think I have some working (like the Explosions), though it's hard to tell if I'm seeing the entire sequence. Many of the others appear invisible, nothing happens.

 

I opened up the SFX add-on file as a blank world, I can see them in the local library, etc...

 

 

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

 

Sorry, cant reproduce this issue. What I did:

1. Generate new project with enabled SFX-addon in SDK Browser;
2. Launch Editor for generated project.
3. Add SFX node to the world via Main Menu: Create -> Node Reference or Create -> Import Node.
4. Click Yes for two dialog messages (import 2 material libraries).

Could you please try to do the same? 

 

If you still have some issues with this - could you attach engine log file from your project (<your project/bin/log.html).

 

Thanks!

That fixed it, thank you very much for helping on this!
 

I was creating projects inside other worlds and I think I had some references missing,
starting blank and using the SDK Browser for the Creation Process for a new world was a much cleaner process...

 

Have a good day...
