Hi I'm trying to create a shadow for an emitter by having the same seeded effect run twice. The shadow effect has a different texture which has been blurred in photoshop.
Is it possible to have 2 emitters in the same effect that run identically, this would make it easy as everything could be done in one emitter? I have set the seed of the effect but each emitter is different (which isn't surprising)?
I have manged to get a shadow by creating the same seeded effect twice in PIXI and manually swapping the texture but it seems to be a clumsy approach.
Can you use custom properties to expose the texture path?
Thanks
Hi. Unfortunately, for now there is no way to make such duplicating of emitter. The only way to instance two effects with different textures as you did. But it will be a good feature to have random seed on emitter level. I'll definitely schedule it with high priority.
Would it be possible to expose this emitter seed to the custom properties so that it can be set from code?
This would be really useful particularly for debugging .
Thanks

Good idea. Will be so.
I bought the professional version, but why not 200 effects？
