i dont have a particle system slot like you how do i fix it

[ianscott888]

@HomeOfTFA I just tried in Blender 2.61 and I click the particles button, I then click the 'plus' symbol (Add a particle system) and it all worked. Try again and if it does not work give me the details.

@ianscott888 Thank you, but can I not apply it to text?

[ianscott888]

@HomeOfTFA You can as long as you convert the text to mesh (in the Object menu)

how do i finally animate it and render as a movie? Thanks in advance.

[ianscott888]

@Amk71839 I think you just click the render button at the top of the properties winodow and then click the animation button (set the number of frames by changing the end frame in the time line window).

This helped me so much - Thank you.

[hippymuffin]

when i make the balls and the plain they sre see through even when i colour them

any help?

[hippymuffin]

how do you change the scale factor?

[ianscott888]

In the properties window with the particles button pressed go down to the physics panel and make sure you change the size to something like 0.5, hope this helps, Ian

Hello, I just tried, works perfect, but when I render image, I don't have the balls...

[SpadedBullet]

@PRoth63 select the balls then press ctrl+alt+h and that will remove the render restriction

[SuperZizo1999]

@PRoth63 me too if you knew the solution just tell me plss

[PRoth63]

I love that video and I'm trying right now...
