I'm no stranger to particular and have chec= ked everything I can think of but can't figure it out. I updated to the latest version this morning (2.1.3) but that hasn't fixe= d the problem. The problem is related to the distance from camera but the visibility/ va= nish settings don't make a difference. The problem also responds to the = camera's zoom setting, ie. zooming in and out can make particles pop on o= r off, even though the camera position isn't changing. Any suggestions for something I've overlooked? -Chris. PS. There's only a few big particles on screen so it's very noticeable.
