Hi,

I have created a nice smoke trail for a jet scene i have created. I have the camera parented to the plane to follow its movement. My problem is that once I parent the emitter to the plane, it is moving so fast that my smoke effect now looks like one particle at a time coming out of the emitter. I have tried adjusting the inherit factor and the emission rate but i just get really weird results. Does anyone know a proper work around for this?

try using the oversampling, should help a lot !
it's in Solvers->Edit oversampling or Cache Settings...

try 2 , 5 , 10
see how it affects your simulations

Majestik thanks for the reply. I tried changing those settings and re-caching. However Maya tells me i have to change the playback speed to .1,.2 etc. Which makes the playback unuseable.
