Particles disappears after frame 2400 ?

[oldiesgoodies]

Hi

I have a simple particle sim. My scene is 3000 frames. I am trying to cache my particles but particle simulation disappears at frame 2400. Basically after frame 2403 no particles are generated and the sop drops to 0 points.

Is there a limit on simulation frames? How can I resolve this issue?

thanks

Edit: "It was the particle life and removing unused particles". Sorry about the buzz

increase the life of your particles, by default it's set to 100, which means 100 seconds, (24 fps * 100 = 2400 frames!!) so your particles die after that frame.
