Title: Rays FX in Unreal Engine 5.1 Niagara Tutorial
Description: In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through creating a stunning rays effect in Unreal Engine 5.1 using Niagara. We’ll cover everything from material creation to particle system setup, noise animation, and fine-tuning the visuals to get those perfect rays that you can use in your projects. Let’s get started!
Key Points:
- Material Creation:
- Start by selecting a texture and combining the red, green, and blue channels for the effect.
- Use noise textures and the
smooth stepnode for dissolving, and apply dynamic parameters for the minimum and maximum values to control the dissolve.
- Particle System Setup:
- Create a Niagara emitter with a single particle that spawns once and lasts indefinitely.
- Adjust the particle size and make it camera-facing, using custom alignment based on the Z-axis.
- Apply the dissolving material to the particles and tweak their fading and size over time.
- Noise Animation:
- Animate the dissolve effect by adding a pan to the noise in the material.
- Use a
vector to radialconversion to spread the particles outward from the center, creating a more dynamic effect.
- Enhancing the Effect:
- Introduce additional emitters for rays and brightness, adjusting particle color and using curves for smooth fading.
- Tweak the tiling of the material for spikier effects, depending on your desired result.
- Rotation and 3D Adjustment:
- Adjust the particles to rotate freely in 3D by changing from camera-facing to mesh orientation.
- Add extra emitters to create additional rays, giving your effect a more complex and dynamic look.
- Customization and Final Tweaks:
- Add sine wave effects for random motion and use curves to adjust the fading, scale, and color dynamics.
- Control the spawn rate, velocity, and size to perfect the rays effect for your specific needs.

Additional Notes:
- Tiling Adjustments:
- You can adjust the tiling of the texture for finer details or more prominent spikes in the dissolve effect. A tile value of 0.8 works well for a balanced look.
- Performance Tip:
- To optimize performance, consider lowering the spawn rate or adjusting the size and velocity of particles, especially for complex scenes.
- Customization Options:
- The rays effect can be easily modified by changing particle size, velocity, and color, allowing you to fit it into any scene or effect you’re working on.
