Thinking Particles Bacteria Multiplying


Created using Cebas Thinking Particles inside 3ds max, it randomly divide bacteria and uses Bullet Solver for dynamics.
You can control the timing and division percentage, but you need to dive down 😉
Note:
-Don’t change the frame sampling, I put it to per half frame.
– For more accuracy you can increase the Bullet Solver iteration so bacteria wont overlap in case you need this.

Making of Twister with PhoenixFD in 3ds max

In this video tutorial I am going to demonstrate creating a twister with PhoenixFD in 3ds max 2011. This continue my PhoenixFDseries, will be focus on the spiral gravity force. If you find this tutorial too hard, please read my previous PhoenixFD tutorial.

To follow this tutorial, you need two free plugins: footools Forceviewer and Peter Waje SpiralGravity.

fooTOOLS’s Forceviewer help us to visualize the SpiralGravity.

SpiralGravity: Adjust the Inward Str, Downward Str and Angle Str, our goal is to make the force focus to inner and upper direction. This will simulate force like a twister.

Uncheck “Std Gravity” since Spiral Gravity is the only force influence our smoke.

Set Sampler type to Truc, this will render every voxel of PhoenixFD without blurring them.

Change simple color to gray.
