Part. Velocity causing AB particles to rotate - aldred2 - 05-08-2008

The problem is with the attached file. If you look, you can see the AB particles turning 180 degrees after birth. The regular Pflow particles don't rotate. This happens when I switch on Part. Velocity in Alignment. Switching to None fixes it, but I need the velocity for stretching.

Is there anything I can do to fix this in AB, or am I going to have to look for a different solution?
Thanks
Mark

Hello Mark,

In AB-PF Daemon select "Particle Orientation", add Rotation op to PF and rotate particle by 90 degrees on y axis. That should work.
Tweaked scene is attached - AB4/max9.

I'd forgotten about the settings in the AB-PF Daemon completely. That worked perfectly.

Thanks
Mark
