hello team...
I am trying to use that object as an emitter.. but RF 2012 does not like it at all.. under 100 res. I get no particles emitted at all.. whatever other setting makes RF crashes..
Any idea..?
Thanks

Hi,
if there are particles created after increasing resolution, this usually implies your resolution might not be sufficient.
Each particle uses some amount of space, whereas the blue spots are just a visual representation and not the actual size of your particle element. At low resolutions, individual particles are bigger and on high resolutions, individual particles are smaller. In some cases, your emitter is too narrow for the particles to pass through, so you need to increase resolution or scale your emitter to a bigger size.

hey thanks Florian.. works now.. indeed it's really related to the size...
