Instances Of Particle Emitters

[thecynic]

Hello,
I am doing a scene with particle emitters. To make the 36 separate emitters I need, I made one emitter, styled, and animated it, and then I instanced it to create the other 35 emitters.
In the workspace, I can see all the emitters working identically(there is an outline of bubbles flowing from each emitter). However, when I render only the initial emitter is visible. Also it appears to be more opaque as if all 36 emitters were stacked on top of one another. I don't get it.
Any ideas on how to make this work or how to do it better?

Thanks,
David

pretty much the only thing taht works correctly instanced is geometry (and thats the only thing that is even suoposed to work but sometimes things seem to work), no instancing of lights or emitters sorry.

However the particle shaoe can be isntanced so isntance that but not the emitter (dont worry they get emitted into but this count as a shape).

However theres no real computational benefit fo ever doing this.

Thank you Joojaa,
That helps a bit. But I was wondering, If I copy my particle, how do I then connect the particle to a different emitter?

Thanks,
David

weren't we just talking of instrancing wich is totaly different form copying. (a isntace is the same shape so it will alwsyas be the same as the other version)

Anyway the aswer is trough connection editor.
