I’m trying to create some trail FX using Ky’s Trails plugin, but I need a bit more control than the default Trail Particles Visualization settings allow. There are two “Particles Attribute Parameters” which appear to allow you to set a Material ID or (instanced?) Object ID for the trails, but checking the box and assigning them the ID of an existing object or material doesn’t seem to accomplish anything. The actual documentation is pretty sparse (and google-translated from the Russian), so it doesn’t seem to offer a lot of help. Does anyone know how to get this to work, or, barring that, a better approach to getting a more sophisticated trail than just a glowing nebulous streak?

You can open track view and add controllers to some of the KY functions, for example you can apply a noise controller to the trail color, the trails will change colors over time by the the noise range. Just keep playing around with it and you’ll get some cool effects.
cheers… ; )
