Particular v2 - Massive
Tuesday, December 29, 2009 at 3:47AM Eight pre-made comps with Trapcode Particular v2 using massive amounts of particles. Download the AEP and play with the settings! There are seven extra comps in there as well - so 15 comps all-in-all! + one edit for benchmarks. Uses Trapcode Lux, Form and Horizon in some comps.
The massive amounts of particles are generated using the Aux system which is a function that allows emitting particles from particles. The Aux particles create trails from the main particles. These are then in turn affected using different things like gravity, turbulence etc.
Took me 45 mins to render the "edit" comp (consisting of eight comps, 47 secs in total) using my MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. What's your render time and hardware?
How about hooking up Emitter Position to Sound Keys? Could be worth a try!

Hey Peder,
Thanks for the project file. Will have a go at it.
Cheers!

Thanks much Peder, it's helps much, many Thanks!!
Happy Holidays
Took 40 minutes and 4 seconds on my Vista32/Intel Core2 Quad 2.4 GHz/AE CS4 with multiprocessing disabled in AE. I was surfing the net while it was rendering.
Happy new year to all of you.
this will be a kick a$$ website ! thanks. Can we upload our own work also ?
sadghost: yes, members may upload things in this area - called the ShareLog.
Really nice particles. Thanks for the project!
Took me 38 min 4 sec on Vista 64 bit Quadcore 2.66 Hz 4G ram.
Hi
I juste bought Particular 2 and try your project
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
so nice to you to show us how it works
Love it ;)
Hi Peder,
I've just downloaded and rendered out the edit (benchmark) too.
tip for everyone, I think: hit Caps-Lock on you computer when rendering, makes sure that AE doesn't try to render to screen too.
And of course make sure you if you have CS4 that you set your Multiprocessing to Faster Rendering, as if nobody knows that already ;)
My rendertime was 23min 56sec. with Multiprossessing on.
Running a PC (win7) Quadcore 2,40 GHz with 8Gb at 1066 Mhz, using CS4
and having a Quadro fx 4500 card (but I don't think this effects the render).
I'll try a render on my Octocore later.
thx,
marcel
IS THERE ANY TUTORIAL FOR THIS ?
took me almost 8 min to render in a eight core mac pro with 10gb in ram and multiprocessing
Really nice particle system
i´ll send some test soon
