Being short on time myself, I have a challenge; can anyone fit this to become 3d particles in Playcanvas?
What do you mean by stationary start point?
The emitter - there could/should be a more ‘omni-present’ option for where the particles starts within the XYZ-World coordinates
We have support for primitive emitter shapes so that particles can spawn randomly in the shape if thats what you mean?
My goal is to mimic dust on a ‘dry summer festival spot filled with people and stalls’. In such ‘scenarios’ the dust is more ambient and without a clear central emitter - such particles are not ‘being spawned’ but are merely kicked of the ground by people
Unless I’m missing something, wouldn’t you just attach the particle effect to the base or the user/feet and trigger it on every step/at an interval?
Ok I get the point (and maybe I am being nerdish on the graphics side), but let us say that one of the examples were implemented, I/others would not have to do a lot of extra start steps in the particle-settings like gravity, lifetime, random speed+positioning and especially positioning a particle emitter for every person in ‘the festival spot’ … a function with ‘ambient positioning + random speed of particles with multiple emitters positions’ would be nice - in case you follow, I could change gear and ‘feature req’ at github? 
I don’t follow. It sounds like you would like a predefined/already preconfigured particle effect for a dust cloud? In which case it can be a template asset with the setup and script(s) needed that is copied from project to project.
Even if you just wanted a function to do all this, that can be done by a developer and taken from project to project.
That looks like a custom shader effect which is possible to do in PlayCanvas I would imagine. It just wouldn’t be an engine feature or something that we would provide as an example as it’s quite a niche effect.
ok - will back down from ‘feat req’-approach
Can use advanced particle editor like

And use them in playcanvas:
Ok, that ‘rocks’ Saad … I think my project is covered for now, thanks
( ‘.efkefc’ … did not see that coming)
Did you write the integration for effekseer?
No its written by the person who wrote
EffekseerForWebGL
oh very cool find… bookmarking now
Oh cool, so you just ported it? I’m thinking about cleaning it up a bit for a tutorial project, would that be okay?
No, the same guy made a sample, I just put in some built-in effects :D, sure go for it
its actually pretty old:
