<![CDATA[3D Pariticles actor troubles]]>Hi there,I am presently setting up a small map to trace a person with the 3D particles actor.
For some reason presently and yesterday, I have found that it will only draw a dot if the x/y coordinate is = 0, if I change that, to another number, there is no particle appearing. The z is -1 so that should not be the problem. Is there a bug? or am I doing something wrong? It has worked before for me, but not now...
All the best Eva

having the z at -1 doesn't give you much space to move your particles around. i usually start with z at -100.

Hi,

I have looked over your patch and have replicated your data input. You will need to reduce your 'limit scale value' outputs to a smaller range i.e. try '-5, 5'

godsbanen-residency2_bonemap.izz

 @jfg 'limit scale Actor' suggestion is good, and I also recommend using a '3D Stage Orientation' to manipulate the global 3D scene values.

I think you must use a Limit-scale value actor and set the out min to -1 and out max to 1 for x and y

Best regards,
