Trapcode Particular 3 Training | 07: Physics: Air

[@philosophyfrog2653]

Best particular tutorial I’ve seen.

[@تعلممعلين-ز2ر]

Great and useful information

[@rahuldeshpande9997]

Note that he set the Move with Wind [%] to 80 when explaining the Turbulent Air part

[@mj_nooker]

Cool tutorial, I get more and more deeply into think in terms of Particular. Thank you! Coul'd you, please, tell me where I can find "Opacity Boost" option in my Particular 6.2, that I saw near 8:37 in your Particular version 3 Motion Blur section? I have shttr.angle 360 because need long motion blur, and my particles is loss their color and opacity. Really need option for me, hehe :) but I can't find it in my Particular 6.2.

[@MaxonRedgiant]

If your shutter angle is that large to get the effect you're after, you might consider using trail particles instead of motion blur. Simply create a new emitter and set the emitter type to be Stroke from Parent (and set the size/opacity/color from parent as well). The boost opacity option is no longer there because the renderer has improved to where it's (usually) no longer needed. Consider working in a 32-bit composition and boosting the color of the particles to above 1. (That is, multiply the R, G, and B values by the same amount like 2 or 5). That should produce more realistic results than the old opacity booste settings did.

@@MaxonRedgiant thank you for the deep workaround guide, definitely will try this.

[@rahuldeshpande9997]

While I understood the Turbulent Air displacement concept, I am unable to produce the exact same result as yours - even though your video uses the most basic settings to accomplish the above - and so did I.

[@rahuldeshpande9997]

I appreciate these tutorials, and the concept explanations are great. But sometimes, the video jsut cuts and you have to figure uot Harry changed some setting between cuts. And the training is for an older version of Particular - so some settings are not available or not the same name. Finally, in the above, I am, as mentioned before unable to produce even a similar result even though the settings are same - for the Turubulent Dispalcement part. Can you please verify if you can produce this same result with newer version of Particular? I literally used the same settings as him from video. I was enjoying the series so far but this sucks now

[@EliasHasan-xc3ty]

Can you please tell me about Air resistance? I cant find it in the new version!

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Air Density in the Environment section may do what you're looking for.

[@lphvannebenaan8976]

Hi, i'd need a way to adjust wind with a gradient on different parts of the screen. Any Idea?

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Not really a way to do that exactly - however in Form (or in Form mode in Particular), you can use layer maps to drive displacement in X,Y, or Z and you could animate this displacement up over time to simulate this sort of effect.

[@tabiasultana8529]

I can't find the Air Resistence? Is there any alternative?

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Most of the stuff in this video has been moved to the displace section as the recent versions of Particular have included a much more powerful and realistic Air Physics engine in the Environment section. (So, depending on the look you're going for, check those two areas.)

[@vyacheslavtomshin7180]

And where is the tutorial where you tell us about air resistance and other air settings ?

[@Jashanrangpuri]

Well this gave me idea to make star wars light speed effect

[@djstylishentertainment3711]

hi

[@Marco-hz8vv]

In the last version of particular where can i find emitter size xyz individual?

[@MaxonRedgiant]

If you change the dropdown for Emitter Size from XYZ Linked to XYZ Individual, the settings will become available.

[@Marco-hz8vv]

@@MaxonRedgiant i found that section is unselectable, it's not White, It seems to be turned off so i can't change anything, what It should be?

[@rahuldeshpande9997]

Anybody able to get the Turbulent Dispalce to work? I used the properties, but the particles are going all over the place and not following the above pattern..

[@MaxonRedgiant]

This tutorial was made using an older version of Particular. Make sure you're using the displacement in the displace section and not the air turbulence.

[@christianjuru2227]

I've been having issues with motion blur not working using Trapcode Particular. Sometimes, it works. Sometimes, it doesn't and when you toggle toggle down the box under motion blur, it either has some strange character or says 0035, instead of giving me the option Off, Comp Settings, On. It seems the project file may be overloaded, prompting the error setting in Particular but I'm not sure. Any help on what the issue could be?

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Sorry for the trouble. That sounds odd. Is that with the recent update to Trapcode? If so, please Create a Ticket with our support team here so we can look into it: support.maxon.net/

[@christianjuru2227]

@@MaxonRedgiant Yes, I just purchased the RG suite license 2 months ago. I was able to find a workaround by restarting my system and running the plugin in a new project file. This seemingly refreshes it and when I went back to my previous project file, the motion blur options were showing up and functioning properly. I had several things going on in the previous project file (several comps, all 4k res, running several plugins...) And this may have affected it, despite having a fairly powerful system that could support it (IMO). I'll submit a ticket with screenshots if it happens again. Thanks for the response!

[@apollogt5506]

could you please post a link to your updated tutorial? physics and air and wind are no longer in the same location in the Trapcode which makes this tutorial outdated

[@MaxonRedgiant]

TONS of powerful features were added. This tutorial covers lots of them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmSyqWqFj8mLndU

[@MaxonRedgiant]

The Physics Air section is now called Drift and it's in the Displace category.@@RoniTosun

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Physics Air is under the displace section. Wind is drift and the turbulence settings are under fields. It was moved because we added a much more realistic air simulation system.@@RoniTosun

[@XJacksonvilleX]

i can't see the Air option in v5, it ain't even there...

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Version 5 completely redid a lot of things in Particular to make them better and more powerful. For example, we have real physics now! What feature of Air are you looking to use? If you want to add wind, under Fast Physics>Drift, you can add it there and that's most like the old wind. OR you can go under Environment>WindX (or Y or Z) and add wind there. The environment tab also includes Air Density and Air Turbulence - this will give a more realistic wind effect to your particles. If you're looking to change the particles' speed, air resistance is now under Particle>Particle Physics. But, if you want an even more fun control, there's the new Velocity over Life parameter in your Emitter.

Hi, How its the best way to export an mp4 video? After using trapcode features I am not able to find the H.264 export option. thank you!

[@man2596]

only through adobe media encoder...

[@oybektorajonov9908]

wooow

[@MaxonRedgiant]

Just as a note: the whole air physics stuff is massively updated in newer versions of Particular. It's more physically based and realistic (and you can use it together with bounce physics now).
