  7. PREFABS
    8. 

  8. -------
    9. 

  9. Particle Systems prefabs are located in "CFX_Prefabs" folder.
    10. 

  10. Particle Systems optimized for Mobile are located in "CFX Prefabs (Mobile)" folder.
    11. 

  11. They should work out of the box for most needs.
    12. 

  12. All Assets have a CFX_ (Desktop) or CFXM_ (Mobile) prefix so that you don't mix them with your own Assets.
    13.

  15. MOBILE OPTIMIZED PREFABS
    16. 

  16. ------------------------
    17. 

  17. Mobile prefabs feature the following optimizations:
    18. 

  18. - Added a particle additive shader that uses only the alpha channel to save up on texture memory usage
    19. 

  19. - Monochrome textures' format has been set to Alpha8 to get a much smaller memory size while retaining the same quality
    20. 

  20. - Other textures' formats have been set to PVRTC compression
    21. 

  21. - Textures have all been resized to small resolution sizes through Unity; you can however scale them up if you need better quality
    22. 

  22. - Particle Systems have been changed accordingly to retain color/transparency and overall quality compared to their desktop counterparts
    23. 

  23. 

  24. It is recommended to use CFX Spawn System for object spawning on mobile (the system also works on any other GameObject, not just effects!), see below.
    25.

  27. CARTOON FX EASY EDITOR
    28. 

  28. ----------------------
    29. 

  29. You can find the "Cartoon FX Easy Editor" in the menu:
    30. 

  30. Window -> CartoonFX Easy Editor
    31. 

  31. It allows you to easily change one or several Particle Systems properties:
    32. 

  32. "Scale Size" to change the size of your Particle Systems (changing speed, velocity, gravity, etc. values to get an accurate scaled up version of the system; also, if the ParticleSystem uses a Mesh as Shape, it will automatically create a new scaled Mesh).
    33. 

  33. It will also scale lights' intensity accordingly if any are found.
    34. 

  34. Tip: If you don't want to scale a particular module, disable it before scaling the system and re-enable it afterwards!
    35. 

  35. "Set Speed" to change the playback speed of your Particle Systems in percentage according to the base effect speed. 100% = normal speed.
    36. 

  36. "Tint Colors" to change the hue only of the colors of your Particle Systems (including gradients).
    37. 

  37. 

  38. The "Copy Modules" section allows you to copy all values/curves/gradients/etc. from one or several Shuriken modules to one or several other Particle Systems.
    39. 

  39. Just select which modules you want to copy, choose the source Particle System to copy values from, select the GameObjects you want to change, and click on "Copy properties to selected GameObject(s)".
    40. 

  40. 

  41. "Include Children" works for both Properties and Copy Modules sections!
    42.

  44. CARTOON FX SPAWN SYSTEM
    45. 

  45. -----------------------
    46. 

  46. CFX_SpawnSystem allows you to easily preload your effects at the beginning of a Scene and get them later, avoiding the need to call Instantiate. It is highly recommended for mobile platforms!
    47. 

  47. Create an empty GameObject and drag the script on it. You can then add GameObjects to it with its custom interface.
    48. 

  48. To get an object in your code, use CFX_SpawnSystem.GetNextObject(object), where 'object' is the original reference to the GameObject (same as if you used Instantiate).
    49. 

  49. Use the CFX_SpawnSystem.AllObjectsLoaded boolean value to check when objects have finished loading.
    50.

  51. 

  52. TROUBLESHOOTING
    53. 

  53. ---------------
    54. 

  54. * Almost all prefabs have auto-destruction scripts for the Demo scene; remove them if you do not want your particle system to destroy itself upon completion.
    55. 

  55. * If you have problems with z-sorting (transparent objects appearing in front of other when their position is actually behind), try changing the values in the Particle System -> Renderer -> Sorting Fudge; as long as the relative order is respected between the different particle systems of a same prefab, it should work ok.
    56. 

  56. * CFX_ElectricMesh is meant to be edited with whatever Mesh you want; Replace it in the Particle System Inspector -> Shape -> Mesh.
    57. 

  57. * Sometimes when instantiating a Particle System, it would start to emit before being translated, thus creating particles in between its original and desired positions. Drag and drop the CFX_ShurikenThreadFix script on the parent object to fix this problem.
    58.
