Physically-Based Bullet Impact Effects




Published: 17 Aug 2021

Learn how to implement simple RigidBody projectiles (bullets) that have unique impact effects based on the material of the object they hit! This adds a lot of realism into your game by having customized particle systems coming out of stone, metal, living organisms, water, dirt, grass, etc...

We'll also have a default impact effect play if we didn't specifically map a material so we can guarantee a hit effect will play even if we didn't explicitly map that material to a unique particle system.
