Particles TOOLS / Object Color Looks

Hi folks, Particle's OBJECT COLOR LOOKS cannot be multiplexed.... what a shame ! I assume this is because the patch is using a custom datatype. In a future version, could this patch output a structure of colors, so that it can be multiplexed ?

thanks

They can be -- you just have to insert virtual splitters in the proper places (this is a bug, but at least it can be worked around).

Hi, particles obj's color looks cannot be black color... I want to do [background is white color , particles is black.]. sorry, maybe this question is very stupid. i am a beginner. thanks

Particles can be black, but you have to change the renderer to not use Additive mode (since adding black isn't very interesting).

On the various renderers, there should be a blend mode input that you can change to make black particles visible.
