Getting Started with PARTICLES in Unity! (Beginners Start Here!)

In this video, we're going to talk about how to start using particles in Unity! This tutorial will give you an overview of what the particle system is capable of, then in the future we can talk about creating specific kinds of particle systems!

Hi everyone! Let me know what kind of particle effects you'd like to learn to create in the comments below! :)

[kennardshanhariyanto]

Thanks, the Unity Particle System is so overwhelming with options, but now I understand more about it

[polyfx]

Really great video man, great talking speed, very clear and detailed explanation! Hope you will keep making more, I'll be following your work for more videos :)

[stevethepirate]

that was so well sectioned! thanks for making this!

Great overview, I am looking to create smoke, fire and sparks for a simulation project... this helped a lot and I'm sure there are lot's of good videos out there specific to my needs. If you have any recommendations I'm all ears.

Thank you so much ! Just started to learn how tu use unity, and I'm surprised to see there is less recent tutorials that I thought, especially for a software like this one updating and changing quite often. Your tutorials really come in handy and I find them very qualitative.
Keep it up and thanks again ! 🐞

[fitbud]

Your videos got potential and really getting interested to listen

[kuzofreak]

Thanks so much for this tutorial its gonna help me aloy with custom jetpack trails

Question, , with custom simulation space. If I were to put particles on my character. How do i make it so that the particles stays in the world after toggling.

[JamiahMcQuiller]

If you could make a video on how to create a particle system within a object, it would be greatly appreciated!

[ashesh.genesis]

I have an fbx file effects with animation, can i attach it to the particle system so it keeps the animation? because converting it to prefab, makes it static.

[Username-Was-Too-Long]

is there a way to add particles to a moving object and have those particles move with the object?

[marcelschulz]

can you make the Kamehameha with the particle system?

[ethanlopez]

How do you make the particle travel longer

[ahmetomercicek]

How can I add multiple materials to a single particle system?

[ThatOneAltAccount]

Game development without unity's particle system is like life without milk, kinda cringe

bruh doesnt realize it, but he got the voice of the joker without even trying 😂😂
