I´m using blender 2.48, for an university work, I made a book opening. I wanted to use particles, to better the work quality, the problem is I can´t control them well.
The book would open, and particles would, at least in my plan,execute a movement shown below, like dust. It would move in both ways of the y axis, in only one of the ways of the x axis and it wouldn´t move in the z axis(the height axis). I wanted the particles to not ignore the book model, preventing them from transpassing the book as if it were a ghost.
So…resuming, how I make the particles die when collided with the book, and how I control a path for the particles, like the one show in the drawing below?
sorry about the bad quality drawing, i´m kind of in hurry :o.
