_1024_ParticleWarfare 1.1 QCplugin update
I was just stuck in the train from Geneva to Paris, due to bad weather conditions. Hopefully I had my laptop and a fully charged battery. So I took some time to modify ParticleWarfare QC plugin, add a few new options.
– It now takes a XYZ structure as input, so you can pipe a Mesh Vertices structure directly into the plugin.
Mesh emitting particles. Yeah, that’s cool.
– Added a Noise Multiplier option, for more subtle effects.
– Tweaked a few other parameters and added a Depth Testing option.
Still not bug free, so I wouldn’t recommend having 2 instances of the patch in the same graph.
Sample files included. download from the box.
Here’s a snapshot of a 3d Head mesh emitting particles from each edge:

I must be missing something. I’m getting this message when trying to load an example composition: : Patch with name “QCPlugInPatch:_1024_P_EmitterPlugIn” is missing
Is _1024_P_EmitterPlugIn another plugin to install?

it is the same plugin. put the plugin from the zip in your quartz composer plugins/ folder

Got it. I had them in “Quartz Composer Patches” which didn’t work, but “Quartz Composer Plug-Ins” does work.

I’m having an issue with getting anything to render to QT movie, I can see the particles in the viewer, but doing an “Export as QT movie” just results in a black box. I have my test QC set up with video straight into the particle warfare plugin into the image emitter. Do I need to output that to a billboard or sprite?
