Hi all,

I'm wondering if there is anyone who can help me with this.

Essentially I want to 'squash' a lod of hypervoxels so that they're almost flat discs instead of spheres. Does anyone know of how, or even if it's possible?

Thanks

Never mind all, I was being a dufus, a stretch setting of -1% did the job nicely. :)

Now, the next problem, emitting particles in a ring formation, after they've been emitted from the death of another particle.

The usual way I would create a ring of particles is using a collision object at the center of the emitter and scaling it down a little. but as these particles are being emitted from the death of another single particle, this method doesn't work as the collision can't be scaled less than a single particle.

Any ideas?

Thanks
