Niagara VfX Not showing Texture

Hello, I am working on a UEFN project and am using the Niagara VFX System and the powerup VFX to make my character have special VFX. well, when I get the VFX on My Character is has no texture it’s just grey checkerboard. And I don’t believe it’s the mesh because when i place the mesh it has texture and it’s all fine.

Hi Your Cooked, Welcome to the Forums.

My first question when encountering ‘grey checkerboard’ problems is asking if you’re working with a ‘power of two texture’?

(Don’t worry about creating a bug report if you’re texture is not power of two, because I think that would respectfully be considered ‘user error’)

Hello I figured it out thanks

Glad to hear it,

If you wanted to provide more info about what you did to fix/figure it out it could help people in the future.

If someone searches for any of the terms used in this thread (Like Niagara, Checkerboard, not showing texture) This might come up.

It wouldn’t need to be anything in-depth, just something to set the future person on the right path.

For everyone with a similar issue: You need to activate “Used with Niagara Mesh Particles” in the corresponding Material.
