Why use Anim | FX Preview?

Unity has a great Particle System but it cannot preview both an animation and particles simultaneously.

This means you have to guess where & when your fx should play. This process often takes time, involves coming in & out of playmode and is just never precise.

Anim | FX Preview solves this problem: you can easily preview, move, edit, and synchronize your particles to your animation while it's previewing!

This removes the technical hurdles and focusses your attention on what's important: making the best fx for your animations!
