hi Gabriel!
congrats for your recent milesteone! 5M views!
Truely deserved!

ISSUE: Trail is flattened out instead of waved
FIX: 1. Make sure in the Master Node(Vertex-Fragment) you have "Alpha Clip Threshold" is present and enabled not grayed out.
2. And of course for the texture png image properties set the WRAP mode to 'Repeat' and TEXTURE TYPE as 'Default'.

Looks amazing and its adaptable on many different uses!

every time i think i did anything neat in my own project you come out with a tutorial that's so lightweight and perfect it forces me to redo my efforts :( lol

[gentlemengamings]

This is great! Im making a demon slayer vr game, and these will be great for the breathing styles!

[kumorikuma]

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for and it was really easy to follow along <3
I get a bit stuck on the texture part. Wrapping gave me problems, and my texture did not blend as nicely as yours with the background.
Would've appreciated it if you included the texture you created so I can try it and see if I get the same result.

(Figured out my problem was I had alpha clipping on)

[Airidas]

Thank you so much for these amazing tutorials! I have recently started looking more into VFX and your videos and courses in Udemy are very helpful

at 10:25 your trail looks very whispy at the end, for me mine looks chunky as it dissipates no matter what texture I make. Do you know what I could be doing wrong?

As well, when I move my trail around it produces it on multiple planes that are highlighted when i'm moving it, making it look weird when it making it turn corners cause it folds on it's self

[HeddaSolstad]

I feel like I just watched black magic.... I am gonna have to rewatch this video a few times to get everything. But thank you for making the tutorial

[delspeedy]

Great tutorial i learned so much from you. Thanks a lot you are the best!

[dagarik]

everything worked out, except for the movement of particles behind the wake. All settings are in local. When changing "update particles" from "global" to "local", the particles continue to rotate around the glowing point and do not follow the tail. Help me solve the problem
