Problems with timing of meteors effect
« on: May 08, 2015, 04:53:44 PM »
When I am tried to drop a meteors effect onto a multiple model consisting of two megatrees and six arches, the effect won't turn "on" until about 6 seconds into the timeframe.   I tried a few different colors; no difference...  I made sure I didn't have some funky fade in time delay set; I didn't.   I then deleted the meteors effect and dropped a butterfly effect and it worked just right.   Any ideas?  I have another meteor effect in the next time slot and it works just right.

It is probably starting "above" your model and not seeing it until it gets down a ways.
What about meteors from other directions?

Good idea Jon.   Hadn't thought about that...   I tried going "up" with the meteors and it is a little better...  Very strange...   Thanks.
