Unity Snow Particle System

Unity's particle system is both robust and feature packed. In this tutorial, you'll learn the ins -and-outs of it to create both fire and explosions. Now give a real snow view to our particle system. Change material with a snow flake image. I use a standard image. As I said, you can use the ready-to-use snow effect of Unity. Import particles package and add Light Snow particle system in your scene (Standard Assets>Particles>Misc>Light Snow). Change its values as seen below.

So an idea's been rolling around in my head for some time, like a marble in an abandoned house. And now I see that Elder Scrolls: Skyrim is going to do something like it.

I want to create some sort of dynamic snow system; one where tons of snow can gradually collect on terrain and objects. I am familiar with particle colliders, but at this scale that would be a bit unreasonable. I had thought about some sort of universal static item shader, which every single one of my larger objects would use. (Normal displacement map, whatever that's called; only working for normals in a particular direction) It'd handle stuff like wet, slick surfaces or snow.

But this whole concept is so abstract it's hard to know where to begin. Anyone have some suggestions? If I understand you correctly, you are saying that you want to de-couple the particle system (actual snow) from the snow created on the object. I have never doen something like this, but can't you use the same principle where you shoot a bullet into a box and it 'paints' the hole (as a texture) on the box.

Now i have another idea, but I have no clue how this would look. You can maybe have a coupe of materials for little snow, mediumSnow, fullSnow etc. Then after certain time intervals fade very slowly from one material to the next.

This will also be good on performance. @ Laypoof, thanks for the compliment! @chubbspet There will be mountains, rocks, and trees, which will all accumulate snow on them.

How To Set Up A Direct Link there. The snow will gradually increase in its depth, and you will be able to carve paths in it when you walk through it. The snow will also turn to mush and melt away. I haven't figured out how I'm going to do all of this, but I'm hopeful that mesh deformation and tessellation will provide the answers.

Those are the features I'm planning for the version 1 release. Give me a couple weeks, I just built this version 2 nights ago, it will look very different in a weeks time.

Within unity 3D, Im building a 2d runner within which I have created a particle system that emits snow like particles from a single location at the top right corner of the main camera off screen. I attached the particle emitter to the main camera so theres always snow like particles on screen, however, as the speed of the main camera increases, so does the speed of the particle emitter, which eventually starts emitting particles off screen.

Tecdoc Keygen Bandicam here. How can I change the settings of the emitter so that the speed of the emitter does not affect the direction of the particles. Lastly for more details, I have set the shape of the emitter to be a cone, and the simulation space to be world. Any help would be much appreciated. I have changed the Simulation Space to be World already, all that does is not cause the particles to always move in the camera. My problem is that as the movement speed of the emitter increases, the particles start getting affected by the speed and get emitted towards the top of the camera in a stream from the top right of the screen to the top left of the screen. When the emitter is not moving, it looks like snow. Falling from the top right of the screen to the bottom.

I want to simulate that behaviour even when the camera is moving. – Oct 28 '16 at 13:08 •.
