To create a FumeFX Test, go to Create panel in the TP user interface/Conditions, and then select AfterWorks group in drop-down list. To create a FumeFX Birth, Follow or Probe, go to Create panel in the TP user interface/Operators, and then select AfterWorks in drop-down list. The operators for Thinking Particles are Birth, Follow, Probe, and Test. In this system, changes in particle behavior are governed by simple rules, regardless of their timing. Thinking Particles, on the other hand, is rule-based and offers you an advanced approach to handling particles. Unfortunately, this event-driven system can sometimes be cumbersome to manage. In Particle Flow, particle changes are generally triggered by time related events, which must happen in order for a change to take place.
You can achieve fantastic results with either however, there are certain instances in which Thinking Particles is your better option. So, in order to enhance your use of Particle Sources, FumeFX comes equipped with several common operators for each of these systems. Using thinking Particles you are able to emit particles from anything in the cinema 4D scene really, from points, edges, or surface normals of any object with surface emission or even emission from a volume.įor more tutorials in using Cinema 4D’s thinking particles, you should check out Sam Welker over at his blog where he has dabbled in using them on multiple projects and tutorials.Particle Flow (PF) and Thinking Particles (TP) are similar in that both allow you to control the characteristics of particles over the course of their life at a very granular level. Not to be confused with Cebas Thinking Particle System for 3ds MAX, Thinking Particles in Cinema 4D uses the Xpresso interface to provide better control over individual particles and streams and particles can interact with the environment, as well as each other in an event based system. In this tutorial I will begin to walk you through the Thinking Particle system in Cinema4D The plan is to have a multi-part look at using thinking particles in cinema 4D diving more in depth with their use. Marc compares the Thinking Particles to the standard particle emitter in Cinema, shows some basic setup. Footprint Production’s Marc Pearson has a look at the basics involved in using the Thinking Particles System in Cinema 4D.
