[WIP] Work around depth charges

The slow motion reveals an expansion phase followed by a compression phase, both accompanied by a "ball of fire"; the sequence ends with a second, smaller, expansion. Everything happens way too quickly for the human eye to register the full sequence though. At least for the type of explosion show in the video, all you can see at normal speed is a cloud of bubbles popping out from the center of the explosion and then disappearing

Amazing, that's ... beautiful ! And exactly the kind of info i was looking for !

And BTW, these guys are funny !

Best, LGN1

1. In particles.dat, find the nodes #Fire_big and #Fire_small : for each there is a new child node called "light" which contains a ParticleGenerator controller and a WaterInteraction controller.

- the ParticleGenerator controller will create a light effect with a light node contained in Materials.dat

- the WaterInteraction controller is necessary to stop the light as soon as the fire is underwater.


2. In Materials.dat, find the light node called "Light - fire" : this is the "object" used as a particle by the ParticleGenerator in particles.dat


That's all !

Hi Kendras,

thanks a lot for your help and the explanation
Do you have an idea what might be the problem here:

Is the problem mentioned in this post still occuring in Rbs1_SH4_Effects_GWX_30_71 ?

[LGN1]

Yes, somehow the additional DC particle generator modifies/influences the other particle generators

Best, LGN1

Try to set NoDeleteChildren as 'False' instead of 'True' in FastParticleGenerator of Smoke Big (child node of Fire Big node).

Hi,

I found a way to solve the issue:
