Of course the parameters of the physics (gravity, etc) can be adjusted and even over-ridden to get the result one is looking for. I didn't mean to imply that it was all done with one push of a button!! Thanks for the correction.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07699546973021233767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-44016796076081852542013-12-07T09:09:33.124-05:002013-12-07T09:09:33.124-05:00Kevin is right.

The physics are just a base.I am a 3d artist but more on the modeling/sculpting texturing side of the field. <br />In the room where I work another guy had to do an HD nebula. He used a particle simulation of about 1 billion and two hundred million particles. It took him a huge amount of time to shape it the way the client wanted it. At the end looked great. The process is not just a "push of a button" but a person wouldn't know until they are in the field I guess. <br />p.s. Thanks for the great blog James!

Yes, the physics are built in, but getting aesthetically pleasing results takes a whole lot of tweaking settings and adding in forces that aren't physically accurate. It requires both an artistic eye and a strong intuitive understanding of the physics.Kevin Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558847888090033541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-12032254921715535992013-12-06T22:39:09.942-05:002013-12-06T22:39:09.942-05:00The physics are built into it, so there is no &quo...The physics are built into it, so there is no "animation" as such, they software does it all, the calculations etc, because the physics are built in.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07699546973021233767noreply@blogger.com
