emil_vfx Wrote:@ Solitude: If it's not too much work, you can post it, that would be great. Meanwhile I found a workaround: I just created a PFlow, which puts locked-on-emitter-particles on the meshes (they are selected as emitters within the Position Object Rollout), and then I created a Particle Src with the PFlow selected. Voila! ;-)
Best regards and thanks for the ideas, guys!
Emil
If you're using the particle src, you're not really emitting from the geometry... you're emitting from a circle around the particle... so if it doesn't matter, then cool! otherwise (and it might be a bit long) go to maxscript -> newscript -> paste all this stuff, then select it all and drag it onto a toolbar. It's not complete -- i commented out the fumegrid button... so ignore that empty space at the top. If you have any questions let me know. When it's done I'll prob post it on scriptspot and put links in the appropriate forums.
