Sets collision groups used to reject particles that overlap the geometry.

virtual void nvidia::apex::EmitterActor::setPreferredRenderVolume ( RenderVolume *  volume) [pure virtual]

Emitted particles are injected to specified render volume on initial frame.

This will work only if you have one renderVolume for each emitter. Set to NULL to clear the preferred volume.

virtual void nvidia::apex::EmitterActor::setRate ( const float &  ) [pure virtual]

Sets the range from which the emission rate is randomly chosen.

virtual void nvidia::apex::EmitterActor::setVelocityHigh ( const PxVec3 &  ) [pure virtual]

virtual void nvidia::apex::EmitterActor::startEmit ( bool  persistent = true) [pure virtual]

start emitting particles

If persistent is true, the emitter will emit every frame until stopEmit() is called.

virtual void nvidia::apex::EmitterActor::stopEmit ( ) [pure virtual]

Stop emitting particles.
