Hey there HitFilm people.
I am using Hitfilm 3 pro and the Atomic Particle effect is not working.
it turns whatever I put it on to black and gives a message saying
Error: failed to initialize shaders!
Has anyone else had this problem? and what can I do to fix it?

That error message is a GPU warning.
So, can you list your system specs? CPU, GPU, OS, RAM and storage? Are your GPU drivers current?
RAM: 4 GB
Processor: intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3120M CPU @ 2.50GHz
System type: 64-bit
is this what you're looking for?
Yup.
Wow, your system is really barely scraping the minimum required specs for running Hitfilm.
Try updating your GPU drivers here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/81499/Intel-HD-Graphics-4000
What else do you have going on in your composite and how large a plane are you trying to add atomic to? Like I said, you are literally are the bare minimum spec to run Hitfilm. If a driver update doesn't fix the issue, you're probably just overloading your GPU with the effect.
