Animating particles moving backward, like into a black hole?

starsani

I want to make a looping animation of a bunch of particles moving from outside toward a point in the center.

Is this even possible in blender? I think it depends on having some of the particles appear and disappear at points, and I’m not sure you can just make a mesh vanish.

I’ve been playing around with particle systems and having objects follow paths, but no luck yet…

Hey, You can reverse a rendered animation in the VS editor. I think if your using objects on a path you can reverse them. Also you can animate the camera location to create that effect. Blender has many ways of achieving the " same" thing.
