Create Particle Systems

---

Particle systems simulates and renders a large amount of quads called particles.

Create a Particle Systems asset in Evergine Studio

You can create a material click button on from Assets Details panel to deploy a create menu options and click on the option "Create particles"

Inspect Particle Systems in Asset Details

You can find the particle system assets in the Assets Details panel when you select a folder in the Project Explorer.

Particle System files in content directory

The particle system file has the .weps extension.

Create a new Particle System from code

The following sample code can be used to create a new particle system and apply to an entity in your scene:

var assetsService = Application.Current.Container.Resolve<AssetsService>();
var graphicsContext = Application.Current.Container.Resolve<GraphicsContext>();

// Sets its particle emitter.
ParticleEmitterDescription emitterDesc = new ParticleEmitterDescription()
{
    ParticleTexture = EvergineContent.Textures.particle_png,
    ParticleSampler = EvergineContent.Samplers.LinearClampSampler,
    RenderLayer = EvergineContent.RenderLayers.Alpha,

    MaxParticles = 1000,

    InitLife = 2,
    InitSpeed = 1,
    InitSize = 0.1f,
    InitColor = Color.Red,
};

ParticlesEmitter emitter = new ParticlesEmitter(emitterDesc, graphicsContext, assetsService);

// Creates the asset and sets its emitter.
ParticleSystem particleSystem = new ParticleSystem();
particleSystem.AddEmitter(emitter);
