rendering partical file is black

Hi, I’ve got another stupid question. I can’t find the answer in das Blender Buch or the tutorials on my own site, LOL.

I’m trying to refresh myself on particals and can’t seem to make them render. They turn out black. I’ve added a light (spot and halo), and still won’t render. I’m doing the fireworks tutorial and the tutes in das buch. Please help :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks, Ingie

what kind of material did you assign to the particle emitter?

I made it reddish with the halo on and lines, like the fireworks tutorial said. I can see it annimate perfectly… er… what frame did I render?.. hee hee hee… Let me see if I’m rendering the frames that are before it explodes… Oh how dumb!!!

Nevermind :stuck_out_tongue: (blush) I was rendering frame one, no particals there yet, LOL

Thanks again, I’m so dumb!!!

Love Ingie

not a problem, been there, done that, will probably do it again…and again…and again
