Hi,

I am working on a project for a while and it's almost done. I was making test on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 mobile phone and FPS was dropping a bit when I use 3500 particles in the scene. It wasn't a big deal until I tested on a slower phone...

I have tested the game on an HTC One M7. FPS was dropping around 0.5 when there are 3500 particles in the screen. Which makes game almost freeze and even closing the application is getting harder.

So, my question is: Is it possible to make particles bigger?

I'm using 1x scale 3500 particles now. Is it possible to make it 10x scale with 350 particles?

That's my only obstacle before releasing my game. I would be glad if we can figure it out.

(I'm using Simple2DFluid for better performance)

Hello,
When "Simulate when invisible" is checked and i'm moving around the camera or I'm in vr the mesh starts to get very noisy. What can be the problem? it's working fine when this option is not checked. Thanks

Wondering if I can make ObiCloth collide with Unity Particles.

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Just bought Obi Fluid and playing around with it following the basic youtube video and the FAQs page and have a couple of questions...
1. Is the most recent how to video the one from October 2017 or is there a newer one? That video's menu's and components are not the same as i see in my version.
2. My game is going to be a 2D game, i do not see how to setup collisions with a 2D object (a cube for my playing around to learn it). If the object has a 3D collider then the particles collide just fine, but if i change the object to have a 2D box collider the particles go straight through. Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Obi Team,

I saw the video on YouTube for obi rope 4.0 coming in a few weeks, just wondering it will be released soon?

I require the rods feature for a project.

Thanks

Hello,

I have a prefab that contains an emitter, emitter shapes, a solver, and 2d sprites. I noticed that particles were rendering from an emitter shape that I had marked inactive. I also unchecked all emitter shapes and the particles still rendered. I then started to remove emitter shapes (which makes prefab no longer a prefab instance). Now when I am in game mode I get the following errors even though I still have a solver, emitter, emitter shapes.

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Obi.ObiEmitter.OnSolverStepBegin () (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/Actors/ObiEmitter.cs:403)
Obi.ObiSolver.SimulateStep (Single stepTime) (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/Solver/ObiSolver.cs:545)
Obi.ObiSolver.FixedUpdate () (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/Solver/ObiSolver.cs:745)

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Obi.ObiEmitter.UpdateEmitterDistribution () (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/Actors/ObiEmitter.cs:258)
Obi.ObiEmitter.RemoveShape (Obi.ObiEmitterShape shape) (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/Actors/ObiEmitter.cs:154)
Obi.ObiEmitterShape.OnDisable () (at Assets/Obi/Scripts/Emitter/ObiEmitterShape.cs:76)


UPDATE:

I am able to reproduce the error. First I notice that when I uncheck the ObiEmitterShape from the emitter, it still renders the fluid (SimplefluidRenderer). Since I have an object that requires multiple emitterShapes, I created child objects under the single emitter so that I can move them around, etc. When I remove the ObiEmitterShape component from the single emitter object, that's when I get those NullReferenceException errors. To avoid this, should I create multiple emitters and add a single ObiEmitterShape component to them (1 to 1 setup) instead of having one emitter with multiple child objects that have the ObiEmitterShape component attached to them?

Everytime i start a simulation all my cloths look like this, is this a bug or am i doing anything wrong?

I am trying to fill a glass container (2D) and also have a label that sits in front of the fluid (ie. soda bottle with a label). The issue is that the fluid is being rendered over the label even when I move the label closer to the camera (ie. change z position). I am using sprite renderer objects with sorting layers (ie. 1 = bottle, 2 = label), if that helps.


UPDATE:

I had to adjust the main camera's clipping planes which seemed to work.

Hello,

we would like to use Obi Cloth plugin for our project and we want to ask about console support (specifically: PS4 and Xbox One). We know that currently consoles are not supported, so instead we'd like to know if possible console support release will be in the near future.

If not, would it be possible for us to add console support ourselves?

Is there a maximum number of particles a scene can handle?

Is there a maximum number of particles one solver can handle?

Are these limits platform dependent? (ie. mobile vs desktop)?

I want to make sure that I am well below these limits.

Thank you.
