Compatibility


This preset is compatible with all Thinking Particles presets from the official Maxon library. Also, popular presets like the Easywalker for C4D and the particle presets from Maxon's very own XPresso guru Björn Marl work seamlessly with the Particles Kit.

As easy as 1-2-3


First, you set up the main controls, defining groups for main and child particles and deciding what, where, when and how to emit particles.

After the particles are emitted, you chose from a huge set of dynamics to make the particles interact with objects, forces or themselves.

Lastly, you use the visibility options to define particle geometry, enable Mograph Dynamics [...]

C4D module integration


All Mograph effectors are supported! You can clone Mograph instances on the particles, all dynamic and right from the preset controls - no further setups required. The particles can be traced and i.e. used with a Sweep-Nurbs. There also is a Hair and Pyrocluster integration which let's you create stunning results within a minute.

Iterate!


You can do iterations! Every part of the Particles Kit can be duplicated indepently. With the "Born from Particles" option and the alternative to define the particles as emitter themselves, you can create endless chains of particle groups.

And due to the fact that the preset's Visibility module and the preset's Dynamics module can be duplicated as well, each of your particle group can [...]

      I’m sorry, i don’t get notifications here yet. Please contact me on email, so I can send you instructions. You need to copy the lib4d file inside the Maxon folder / browser.

    hey Balazs,

    i purchased your great kit yesterday, but unfortunately i have some trouble using the particle cloner. the clones don´t apper at the same position as the particles. also the size of the cloned object is much too big. whats wrong?

    macosx 10.6.8 / cinema r13.051

    maybe its the old version? like nebosja i got the v1, not the v2?

    i made a demo-scene for you to check out: http://www.zwonull.com/download/partikel_test01.zip

    thanks

      hello, someone there?

    • c1p0 on March 13, 2012 at 1:32 pm

      You should zero out the cloner’s position, that can be a problem. Also, there’s a size option on the Emitters, you should set it to 1, if you want to control your clones with the cloner.

      If you still see issues, try using a simple cloner, attaching the particle group as the object.

      If you still have problems please write me an email, and we will find a way :)
