Particle Tools Description

A great QuartzComposer patch that allows you to create particle systems. This set of patches provides an object-oriented interface for building dynamic particle systems. Particle Tools were inspired by Tommi Ilmonen's Visual Effects Engine. What's New in This Release: New Colliders: · Added "Collider: Kineme3D Object" patch — collides against the surface of a Kineme3D mesh. · Added "Collider: Quad" patch — collides against a single quad; easier to use than the "Collider: Triangle Structure" patch. New Renderers: · Added "Render: Structure" patch — outputs a structure suitable for GLTools. · Added "Render: Kineme3D Objects" patch — renders a Kineme3D Object at every particle. · Added "Render: Textured" patch — simple renderer which adds support for a single texture. · Added "Render: VBO" patch — renders points, lines, triangles, or quads. New Objects: · Added "Object: Boid" patch — implements the Craig W. Reynolds boid algorithm. · Added "Object: Gravitate" patch — implements particle-to-particle inverse-square gravitation. · Added "Backface Culling" option for all colliders. · Some performance optimizations. · Fixed compatibility with PerformanceTool. · Fixed "Motion: Shear" setting when using "Render: Standard". · Fixed ports to allow publishing and use with "Input Splitter" and "(De)Multiplexer" as a Virtual Port. · Fixed crash related to updating Settings panels while the composition is stopped. · Fixed crash related to removing a live object from the Scene or an Emitter. · Fixed crash related to removing a live object from an Emitter of Emitters. · Fixed rendering of collision meshes when using "Render: Standard". · Improved force rendering — more forces now honor the Color property. · Renamed most patches to be more intuitive and to take up less space in the composition editor.
