⚡Love this one, it's an awesome way to create Lightning! ⚡
💯It's all driven by Unity's content creators personal selections. It's a community driven sale, that highlights assets in unique and interesting ways!

just wanted to say thanks. i've learned a lot from you, and one of the coolest things is the flexibility of going either with the particle system or the vfxgraph! keep doing you man!

[adadventure]

and thanks for using open source freely available software such as blender and krita. i think its always a better choice so that everyone can have equal access to the tools.

Hey man I appreciate everything you do! If you have a minute could you give a few examples of ways you learned vfx?

[RahStahMon]

I would love to see some clever workarounds for not being able to use post processing.
As is the case for a lot of mobile game projects.

[lando]

thanks for the video, but I really wish you gave more help for people still using the particle system. The vfx graph isn't even available for mobile developers.

[citycritteradventures]

could you kindly share how to work with the alpha clipping in the particle system like it is worked with in the vfx graph? Thanks!

[mitchelltharp]

Odd when i apply the shader the texture doesnt appear anymore but when i remove the shader the tex comes back. I am certain my shader is bare bones like you.. curious

[DivanLabuschagne]

I still cant seem to get the shader graph option in the output particle mesh node. Im using unity 6 and it either gives me an output particle mesh unlit or mesh shadergraph. Any ideas?

[PatrykPiecka]

It might be a silly question, but is there a place where I can download the scene you use for showcasing effects?

[Einxeld]

It would be interesting to make zigzag random

[jamessunderland]

There is no option for me to to change the "active targets" in the shader to "Visual effects"
