Create Animation with Particles?

ozboybrian · January 2012

Is it possible to do this? since Particles are far less demanding.
Could I simply use a bunch of particles in the one spot to perform an animation sequence, or would this not work well?

Well define "animation"
Fireworks, water, lava, rain all that stuff!

Oh, iforgot: explosions, stars, sun rays, lasers

I'm thinking of a Vortex on the spot.. (like a Portal)

Maybe..... That's got me thinking.... It's 1am in Ireland here but I think I might have a template by tomorrow

Have an actor rotating and particles coming-out of it?

ozboybrian · January 2012

That could work, but i'm just trying to limit the amount of actors

I guess when Sprite sheets come life will be easier.

LeonardDeveloper · January 2012

Sprite sheets..... You do realise that's basically still an actor just the images are on a sheet?

ozboybrian · January 2012

Yeah lol.
So quality Particle animation possible?

LeonardDeveloper · January 2012

You can already do that by extracting the ong sequence from a gif..... I can animate one in inks cape if you want?

Wait, come again??

I think everyone is getting to crazy on this limiting stuff. I don't do tons of limiting of actors and my stuff runs great. Forget about the send gen apple devices in a year they won't be supported and with the a5 chips the devices can handle a lot. Time for people to develop for the future not the past.
