Particle Goal 1) OVERVIEW PARTICLE GOAL PARTICLE GOAL 1.1) Goal ? Working with Particle Goal ( A goal is an object that particles follow or move towards. You can use goals to give trailing particles a flowing motion that’s hard to generate with other animation techniques. The trailing particles move as if connected to the goal by invisible springs. In the context of goals, soft bodies are considered particles ). PARTICLE GOAL 1.2) What is Particle Goal ? Particle objects are useful as goal objects because of the many techniques available for animating particle motion. You can’t add a goal to individual particles of the particle object, but you can control how influential each particle is on the trailing object. If the goal is a particle object, its particles attract the particles of the trailing object one for one as the animation plays. If particles in the objects do not die, the trailing particles follow goal particles based on the creation order. If particles in either object die, the preceding scheme no longer applies. You can no longer visually predict which trailing particle will follow a particular goal particle. If the trailing particle object has more particles than the goal object and particles don’t die in either object, the extra particles follow the first-created particles of the goal. For instance, suppose you create a goal object with two particles and a trailing object with four particles. The four particles would move toward the two particles like this: ... - tailieumienphi.vn
