Ilera Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Hey all Hope this isnt a totally noob question, but Ive searched around and cant find an answer. I have a particle system, with a simple source, wind and color applied (to apply a ramp color during $LIFE) I am then using an instance to instance lights to each particle, and this works fine. However, is there anyway to get the lights to take on the color of the particle they were instanced to? I have tried using instancepoints() but as that just returns a point number i only seem to be able to use that for randomization etc. Any help greatfully received. Ilera P.S. I am currently using houdini 9.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilera Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 Never mind, think I have solved it by using expressions on the instanced light eg point("../geo1/OUT",instancepoint(),"Cd",0) Where geo1 is the source of my particles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
