What you can do with the Resource menu "Particles"†

In the Resource menu, Particles provides detailed settings for particles.

Particle Setting Options†

• Particle List
  This is a list of registered particles.
  Select and add the particle effect file (.efk) you created in Effekseer.

• Add Button
  Select effekseer data (.efk) from Explorer.

• Folder Button
  Add a folder for management.
  If there are any selected files, include them and make them into a folder. (Multiple selections allowed)
  Data can be moved by drag and drop after adding folders.

• Update Information Button
  Specify a folder for updating data.
  The first time you click on it, you will be asked to specify the path from which you want to import. If you specify it, you will be able to update the data from that folder next time.
  Use this function when you want to keep data for editing in a folder outside of the project.

• Copy Button
  Copy the selection.

• Paste Button
  Paste the copied items.

• Trash Button
  Delete the selection.

• Stamp Button
  Register the selection as a stamp.

• Export Button
  Copy the selections to any folder.

Particle List / Right-Click Menu†

In the particle list, right-click to view.

• Cut
  Cut the selected files.

• Copy
  Copy the selected files.

• Paste
  Paste the cut and copied files.

• Delete
  Delete the selected files.

• Rename File by Resource Name
  Rename the resource file with the name currently on the list.

• Specify Local Name
  Valid only when a folder is selected.
  Folder name localization function.
  English folder names can be specified when opening in the English version.

• Export Selected Elements
  Export the selected elements as an .exrbr file. If multiple selections are made, they are combined into one file.
  The .exrbr file is a file format that allows various resources to be compiled and imported into Bakin.

• Open the Resources Folder in Explorer
  Open the folder where the resource is stored.

• Open the Import Folder in Explorer
  Open the folder for import. (If there is a folder for updating data added with the Update Information button)

• Copy GUID
  Copy the specific GUID.

• Sort This Hierarchy by Name
  Sort alphabetically by name within the selected hierarchy/folder.

• Sort Selected Elements by Name
  Sort only on multiple selections.

• Be Sure to Include in Published Work Export
  Ensure that the selected resources are included in the work when it is exported as a published work.
  (!)When exporting a work as a published work, resources other than “resources used in the game,” such as those placed on maps or used in events, will not be included in the work.
  Therefore, resources that are used only by plug-ins installed in the work must be explicitly included in the work with this feature.

Particle Preview†

This is the model preview screen. You can check models.

• Preview
  The camera can be rotated and moved by dragging the right mouse button and shifted horizontally by dragging the middle mouse button.

• Play/Pause Button
  Toggle playback/pause on preview.

Particle Settings†

This section provides detailed settings for particles.

• Name
  Specify the particle name.
  (It can also be changed by clicking twice on the file.)

• Basic
  • File Name
    This is the filename of the particle being specified.

• Folder Name
  The folder name and folder path of the specified particle.

• Prewarm (sec)
  Specify when you want to use the particle in a state where it is played back in advance. (1 = 1 second)
   
  For example, if you place a "fog" particle on a map that gradually thickens from nothing, the map will be fog-free the moment the player enters the map.
  By specifying a Prewarm for how long it takes for the “fog” to thicken, the map can be filled with fog from the moment the player enters the map.
  (!)Prewarm is a function that "fast-forwards the particles to a specified time".
  Therefore, the number of particles set to Prewarm and the number of seconds set to each Prewarm can increase the load during map transitions.
  Also note that if you are using map Pre-load, the Prewarm will be executed on the particles on the map to be loaded ahead of time.
  Take advantage of the Resource Preview and set the number of Prewarm seconds to the required value.
  Also, be sure to place the required number of particles with Prewarm set on a map.

• Environmental Effects
  Specify if you want to use it as an environmental effect.
  When turned on, the effect can be selected under "Map Settings > Environmental Effects" and the effect will be overridden and displayed on the screen.

• Sound Effect
  Select the SE to be played.

• Timing of Sound Effect Playback (sec)
  Adjust the playback timing of sound effect. The playback timing is delayed by the number of seconds entered. (1 = 1 second)

• For Battle Effects
  Specify the behavior when used as a skill or magic in a battle scene.

• Effect Play Time (Second) 0=Automatic
  Specify the playback time of the effect.
  This is mainly used when there is a large amount of blank time at the end of the particle effect.
  (!)When set to 0, if the lifetime of the created particle is up to 5 seconds, it will be played until the end.
  If you wish to use particles with a lifespan longer than 5 seconds, please specify the number of seconds explicitly.

• Generated Position
  Specify the position for particle playback.

  Target	Generated at the target's location when skill is used.
  User	When a skill is used, it is generated at the position of the character who used it.

• Target Position (Gravitational Force)
  Used when the gravitational force (with target) setting is specified in Effekseer.

  Target	Specify the target position of the gravitational force to the target person.
  User	Specify the target position of the gravitational force to the user.

• Orientation
  Specify the target direction.

  None	No direction is specified. Playback is performed in the same direction as created.
  Same Orientation as Target	Playback in the same direction as the target is facing.
  Same Orientation as User	Playback in the same direction as the user is facing.
  From User to Target	Playback from the user to the target.
  From Target to User	Playback from the target to the user.
  Billboard (Y Rotate to Camera)	Playback while rotating around the Y-axis to face the camera.

• Generation Method When Used as Overall Skill
  Specify the number of particles to be generated if the overall skill is specified.

  Individual for Each Target	Generates as many particles as there are characters.
  One in Center	Only one is generated in the center of the battle scene.

• Particle Generated in Sequence
  Specify the particles you want to play back in a sequence.(Used when you want to play the effect in two steps, such as bow launch & bullet landing)

• Sequence Timing (sec)
  Specify when the particle specified in the sequence will be played back. (1 = 1 second)

• Screen Shaking Strength
  Specify how hard the screen is shaken when the particle is played.

  None	No shaking is used.
  Weak	Use small shaking.
  Medium	Use standard shaking.
  Strong	Use large shaking.

• Shaking Timing (sec)
  Specify the timing for shaking the screen. (0 = Shake the screen at the same time the particle plays.)

• Shaking Length (sec)
  Specify the length of shaking. (1 = 1 second)

• Damage Display Timing (sec) 0=Automatic
  Specify the timing for displaying the damage text. (0 = use default display timing)

• Guard Motion Timing (sec) 0=None
  Specify the timing of transition to the guard action. (0 = transition at default timing)

  Specify the position of the local light.

• Color
  Specify the color of the local light.

• Intensity

• Fade Out Start Time (sec)
  Specify when the local light starts to turn off.

• Time to Fade Out (sec)
  Specify the time from the start of fade-out until the light goes out completely.
