I don't understand ?
I'm trying to explain better. The curve ( a simple circle) is not the pb.
It is the curve from path %age in the AE who give me a pb. I want the
emitter to start slowly
along the circle and then accelerate in the second half of the circle. The
frame rate is set to 4. So the distance between each emitted particle change
because of this acceleration.
I don't know how to tell XSI "emit a particle each n unit on the circle". It
looks like an event but I don't find the solution for the moment :-/
