A little overview in how to align an object in Thinking Particles to compensate a ball over him so never fall down. This video is based on this cool video from kosolax, that at the same time is based in this ICE video from Danil Krivoruchko. I was very curious how to create the […]

In this tutorial you will learn how to control particle size based on distance to specific geometry. It’s based on this tutorial from Anselm Van Seherr, done it with pflow toolbox3, check also his other very cool tutorials. We will do the same with TP5. Let’s start with a basic plane (Where our […]

If you ever tried to use a volumebreak on a geometry with deformation (animated character for example) you will see that volumebreak doesn’t retain deformated geometry information. Instead you can use fragment node, this node can read deform geometry, but straight of the box has not the same visible break […]

Tutorial how to export a uv pass from 3dsmax to remap in postproduction. In the company I’m working right now it was necesary to create different 3d effects for a mapping. This effects consist on move the actual video projection in 3d in diferent ways. Normal workflow will be to […]

After seeing this video (yes I’m a fan of this two guys) I decided to cook some particles in TP. How? Normally we have acces to diferent particles information like velocity, age, lifespan, size, rotation,…. But in thinking particles we are not only limited to this, we can create any data channel […]
