issue with materials

Hi

not krakatoa vry bug but. it seems if you apply a krakatoa material with a gradient ramp in the color if you dont have a texture cords the particles on screen disapear? I would expect them to be black but not sure why they disapear and that seems to also cause a problem with the particle data viewer. where it isnt able to load the data.

Thats not normal is it?

thanks

The Krakatoa Material is like a hard-coded Magma flow under the hood. It is possible that when it is invalid, it invalidates the channels of all particles. I will ask our developers to look into this, I would expect an invalid material not to affect the particles at all, as if it was not assigned…

Thanks for the report!

Btw, the Particle Data Viewer has an option under the Load menu to disable the evaluation of the Material. So even if the Krakatoa Material is killing all particles, you can still see the data BEFORE the Material by disabling that option.

I have logged this as an official issue.
