Low lifespan nparticles

[supergrover]

Hi - I've got an nParticle system which I'm happy with when it's not in motion. However when I parent it to a rocket that's moving through space it loses it's look completely. The only way to counter this that I've found is to lower the lifespan but it doesn't look as cool as it does when static.
Is there a way of getting my particle system to look cool when moving?

Maybe I should describe my problem a bit better....

The particle system looks great when it's in one place but once I move it the effect is lost. The faster I move it the worse it gets.
I don't know if there's a workaround but I need something that looks good no matter what speed the rocket is going.

Dont parent the nparticle system. You allways want the dynamic containers to be immobile. Just parent the emitter.

Hi,

There are several reasons why your animation changes when you start moving your particle system,from my perspective

you should start trying to make it look cool on the animation that you have to do, never start static,but on your matter i believe that if you :

cache your particle system static and then parent it too your rocket (dont forget to parent all the 3D textures too) you will have the results you want
