Adapting the Particle System for VR - Advanced Materials

Uploaded June 2024 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

In this special add-on episode, we adapt our particles system for the special requirements of VR - including making the particles face the camera instead of aligning with the view plane, and making them staying oriented in the world when the player's head tilts. This episode is only in Unity.

------------------------------------

Here's last week's tutorial that shows how to make particles spawn all at once instead of in a steady stream:
