Maya: Rainy Streaks With Event

Raindrops are more or less round. For visualization, however, rainfall depicted as STREAKS is the better method. Streaks are easy to handle with the nParticle system, but they cannot be rendered using Arnold. You have to use the Maya render engine for compositing, or you render tiny spheres with Arnold and apply Motion Blur.
There are several in depth tutorials about nParticles in my channel. This one for example: • Maya: nParticles Emit ...
The music: "Short and Sweet", composed and performed by me, Maximilian Schönherr, licensed via GEMA, Germany.
The sound effect at the end was created by LoafDV: freesound.org/...

My streaks come out segmented. It looks like it is a borken line instead of a solid streak.
