No extra cameras or layers needed. ✔️ Familiar Workflow It's all done within a UI Image´s geometry. So anything you can do with a normal UI element you can do with these particles too. It works just like the default Unity particle system. In fact it uses the default particles system in the back. ✔️ Dynamic Particle Origins (UI or World objects) Simply drag in your transform and the particles will start spawning from there. - OR - Animate the origin by using the Position attributes. ✔️ Animated Preview in Edit Mode See how your particles behave while you are designing your UI. ✔️ Works in all Canvas modes Screen Space Overlay, Screen Space Camera and World Space ✔️ No custom shaders used It works in any render pipeline (URP, HDRP, Built-In). ✔️ Examples & Documentation Check out Kamgam/UGUIParticles/Examples. The attractor and progress bar shown in the video are included in the demos. ✔️ Full Source Code I publish this asset with full source code because as a developer I know how annoying it is to not have source code access. If you like it then please remind others to purchase the plugin. Don't just copy and paste it everywhere. Thank you ❤️ ✔️ Supports Unity 2021.3+, 2022, 2023, Unity 6, ... LTS If you have issues with a Unity version then please try upgrading to the most recent LTS before asking support. >> Things you should know (Read this before you buy) << There is an intro section in the manual. Please read it first. ⚠️ This is not for the new UI Toolkit! It's for the default UI system (called uGUI). If you are looking for a UI Toolkit solution then please check out UI Toolkit Particles instead. ⚠️ Only a subset of the particle system modules are supported: The particle system uses the Unity default component. However, not all its features are supported. The most notable limitations are: X/Y-axis rotation: Only rotation around the z-axis is supported. The reason is that UI may get clipped or intersect other UI if rotated on the x or y axis. Texture Sheet Animation: If you need multiple textures I recommend multiple particle images gut there also is limited texture sheet animation support (see manual). Sub Emitters: These are not supported at the moment. Trails: These are not supported at the moment. Custom Data: The ParticleSystemForImage does not have an API to access custom particle data. If needed you can add the code yourself it's just that there is no ready made API for it. Renderer: The particle renderer is not used at all and thus none of it is supported. More infos are in the manual. ✍️ Usage 1) Right-Click on your Canvas > UI > Particle Image (uGUI) 2) Configure your particles. 3) done &#128526; HINT 1: Particles are fully maskable. In fact you can do with it anything you can do with a regular image component. &#129488; HINT 2: Enable the renderer module on the particle system in the scene for debugging (don't forget to disable in builds). &#129312; HINT 3: Read the whole manual once (especially the intro and the FAQ sections). I know this sounds boring but it will pay off, I promise! ☎️ Support If you have any questions please write to office[at]kamgam.com. Please be patient, replies may take a few days.
