Did you try to read the comments? It’s a particle that needs you to animate it in order for it to be seen

I tryed to animate it but the particle is not like the workshop image, how do I make it look like it?

Alright, then tell me how you did it starting with spawning the particle.

i spawn the particle and then instance particle system, afterwards i animate it in a straight line using bookmarks but it just gives me a wierd lined particle, do i have to curve the particle to make it look like the images?

Well… that is a thrust and if you wanna do that then you need to find another particle to give that cone shape. If you wanna get that swinging effect then you have to animate it in and arc somehow.

hey guys, 4 years after this post I still cant make this particle work and now I would need it for a project. Can anyone help me out and explain in some details on how to make it work please?

Ok I figured it out after all this time omg! For those who were wondering, you have to animate the control point of the particles and mess around with the max particles and lifetime parameters
