Topic: Unreal Engine 5.2 - Intro To Particle Driven Niagara Fluids
In this introductory video tutorial, I will demonstrate how to create an explosion using the Niagara FX System and Niagara Fluids in Unreal Engine 5.2+. By understanding the steps and information covered in this video, you'll be able to easily and quicky generate real-time volume, smoke, and fire simulations from particle systems.
Note for Unreal 5.3 - Particle Source
Make sure you are creating a Grid3D_Gas_Master_Emitter. And inside of it under Emitter Summary with the All Tab click on, look for Particle Source Group, once you find it set Particle Source Type to Emitter and then the Particle Reader Group will show up, and inside that there's a spot to type in your Emitter Name.
If you need to extend the distance culling
Try, (r.HeterogeneousVolumes.MaxTraceDistance 100000) in the command console.
