Hi everyone! Let me know what you think about these generators in the comments below! :)

thats AWESOME WOW; im doing blender since 9 months and was always looking for smt like that, the only issu i have is that its not shown in reflections, the planes cast an accurate shadow but now reflection at all, does smb know why?

This is really cool. It is possible to use this with cycles? because with Cycles it looks black, so I don't know if there is some way to make this work with Cycles

This is how Particle Illusion worked (20 years ago) and I’m glad its in Blender! PI was great for everything though, water, laser beams, flowers, matrix letter falls and all sorts of stuff that was genuinely usable. You should do a video on the asset browser which I cannot get working - they should ditch it and have a presets shelf like other programs

@anomalyraven 9 ай бұрын

I agree that the asset browser is finicky - I'd use it more if it was easier to sort your assets and library, because mine is a mess at the moment. But I'm curious, do you have an example or two of a preset shelf that I could look up? I just want to see what it looks like in comparison to Blender's Asset Browser.

@Sonario648 9 ай бұрын

They should not ditch the Asset Browser. It needs improvement, if someone, maybe someone really interested wants to continue working on it, but ditching it should not even be a thought instead of improvement.

@Sonario648 9 ай бұрын

@@anomalyraven Blender's Asset Browser isn't finicky. You just don't want to do the work of sorting assets. Blender's Asset Browser is a lot similar to Source Filmmaker's asset browser, where you also have to manually put everything into folders.

@spaceexpireaudio666 9 ай бұрын

Particle Illusion still works great! Just under different brand now

@Sonario648 9 ай бұрын

This is also how Source Filmmaker (13 years ago) handles particles. It's all 2D textures, and it still the best way of handling particles for things like smoke and fire.

is that not used in cycles？

@Pascal74264 9 ай бұрын

hello thank you for sharing this, it can be used for many occasions, i tried it with blender 3.3, and during the animation, the square sprites are seen! you don't see the clear flame like in your video, i don't know what it depends on, maybe i have to do some extra settings? i don't know. anyway thank you very much!!!

Can attribution information be added to the asset library as say an image file for reference and possible inclusion as needed.

This I'm not sure about - I generally more reference stuff like this in KZfaq videos, so I just include it in the notes - I'm not sure what industry standard practice is if you include this in other projects

Commodore 64 classic games were all about sprites. This that look like simulation are indeed faster to render than simulations.
