#particlesystems

Heading into the QA module this week and it was a good experience to finally get hands on with some real in production game. Due to the nature of this module, there’s a lot more time for side project work to be done and so recently I’ve been working on particles for a side project.

I have started to think about and create some environmental effects made using the particle system in UE4. 

I made this rainfall effect, which the player will be able to see by looking out of the windows. It is hard to capture the movement in a screenshot, but the rainfall looks believable in the level. I have also added another particle effect which creates the impression of the raindrops splashing when they hit the floor, but this cannot be seen in the images. 

I wanted to create a gloomy world atmosphere outside of the mansion, and the impression of chaotic weather. This ties in with the storyline - meteors have crashed to Earth which has caused reality to split and the parallel dimension to exist.
