Question: Particles rezzeing for some, not others
Posted: Fri Mar 12, 2021 1:57 am
We had something odd happen on a megaworld today and we're trying to figure out why.
We were testing a particle emitter. Three of us were there. One of us (the one with the most powerful computer) could see the particles clearly. I had the second most powerful and could see brief wisps and glimpses of the particles. The third person had an older system and couldn't see them at all.
The thing is, all of us had our max particle settings to 8192.
I visited Kitely Merchant Sandbox, and the very same emitter rezzed particles like crazy.
So I'm wondering if anyone might know why despite our particle settings being identical, the three of saw different results from the same emitter. I know particle emissions are viewer-side, but why were they fully visible for one person and not for others?
Thanks!
