Particle effects rendering different in play mode.

C86G

Hello.

I am working on a scene that requires some particle effects, heavy black smoke in this case. I got some nice effects and they look very nice in the viewports. However, when I hit the play button and simulate them, they look very different, mainlöy much weaker and lighter. Unofrtunately I do not know where to start looking into to get this fixed, so you are my first adress to get some help and insight : )

I´m on 4.24.

Cascade right? Its the lod. Try removing the emitter lods and see if it still happens. But. I wouldn't stay on Cascade for long as it gets somewhat worse as they develop Niagara. I have experienced some strange things with Cascade that is related to Niagara. Just saying. Niagara would be way better anyways, once its in a good state.

Hmmm, removing the LODs did not help : /

Edit: ok wait! Looks like it DID help!

Thanks a lot!
