What new particle system? Are you using an unreleased version of the mighty Blender?
I recently wanted a decent smoke explosion where several trails fallout from the main bang. I tried hard but couldn’t quite get the effect I wanted. :frowning:

After reading your post I poked around and found this on another thread:

Although I haven’t used it it does indeed look as though it “rocks hard core”. Gotta love Blender.

I have the unoffical build and RC1, the patch did not make it, as far as I know…

Pardon my ignorance -

How do I install it?:confused:

Thanks RamboBaby,

There was so little included in the zip file (compared to a standard BF build), that I thought there had to be some extra magic to be done.

Thanks again!

there is a new build with new features… :slight_smile: fun fun fun

Well, at least the people whining about the particle system will have something to look foward to. I wish what was there so far would be in 2.43 but oh well, 2.5 then:)

EDIT: Watched the tutorial and holy crap it just looks a whole lot sweeter then the old particle system. At the rate it’s going this’ll probably rival those of commercial applications.

I can’t wait for this partice system to have the sculpt mode for hair where you can comb and cut, no more curve guides!
