I have a material applied to the particle emitter, and the material selected in the particle system settings, but the particles don’t render with the maaterial applied. ??
might need to bake it first
and also in cycles you need to add some special material to see
certain aspect of the particles !
can you upload the file
compress and zip
thanks
happy cl
Particles don’t render in Cycles. You have to use an object (with a material) as a particle. The particle object can be whatever mesh that you want, and it can be on another layer if you want.
Okay, so I should mention that I’m not using cycles.
SoI woud try to bake it… but the cache panel isn’t showing up in my particles context. Know why?
Too little info and not even a demo blend file supplied (why have you not bothered to supply this ?)
What are you using for the particle
What type of material
What particle settings
What particle render settings
etc etc
You don’t need to bake particles to show their material
