06/02/2011

nice tutorial so far, but is there another possibility to transform the particles torwards the camera ? i also use trapcode particular, but my blood cells are still flat pieces when i rotate the composition with my camera tool. (maybe i just have to change some settings in particular?) thanks ;) greetings from germany

Hi friend can you tell me if the trapcode EFFECT vercion appears only in the 7.0 program, because I have the cs3 vercion greetings from Uruguay

04/13/2011

Awesome tut especially if your experiencing after effects but just gettings started in 3ds max

04/07/2011

i have a crush on you. this is amazing. i have been trying to animate blood cells in maya for weeks to no avail. thanks for doing this!

01/06/2011

08/30/2010

Hi,
Just an ammendment from my previous comment. After speaking to the company i have found out that the custom particle feature has been renamed to the 'Sprite' option!

Thanks,
Chris Hull

08/11/2010

Hi,

After reading all the comments about not being able to make custom particles on Trapcode Particular i tryed myself and found these guidelines.

1 - Only Versions Trapcode Particular Versions 1 to 1.5 have the ability to create custom particles. (not sure about higher versions)

2 - Make sure you install the software properly otherwise some features may not work!!

These are the guidlines from the company!!

07/23/2010

Hi Andrew,

When you select Particular- Custom I do not have this option? I am using CS4. Please help.

02/01/2010

Andrew- You are truly an AMAZING asset to us all. Thanks for making so many great free Tuts. Cant wait to see what the ones I will pay for will be like!

12/18/2009

To all you guys that have this problem it´s because you have a version earlyer than the 1.5, update your version, that´s all

Para quienes tienen el problema con DOF es porque no tienen la version 1.5 de trapcode particular, actualicen su version y listo

12/29/2007

Twist - I had the same problem myself, I've no idea why this should happen but try setting your time sampling to split clip - loop. This seems to solve the issue. Hope this helps!

Hi!

i just finished this tutorial and made an animation of my own. there is a problem with the particle system:as shown in the tutorial, i mapped a 3d-animation of a cell on the particle system. that worked very well. but there is one problem: the reference-animation of the particle is 200-frames long..it shows the cell spining around itself (once!).after that it has to be looped.but there is the problem: that causes a visible "flicker"-effect wich is visible on every particle after every loop. i dont understand that. i tested the animation of the source 3d-model and its 100% perfect..when its looped! so why does it flicker in the particle system ?? another problem is..that there is an ugly "overlap" effect when a particle crosses another particle in 3d-space..how do i avoid that ?

you can watch my animation here:

hope someone can help me!

wow!!! you're just a fantastic teacher!
You are the reason why I love editing films and animations....

Why don't you have your own biography in wikipedia yet?!?!?

thx for your great tutorials

11/02/2007

Great tutorial.

Lennon: You need to export in a format that runs as a file numbered sequence, Andrew uses PNG, I personally prefer RLA, but you can also use TIFF and a few others. The images need to be labelled 000 - xxx and must be imported as an image sequence in AE, also ensure that you also export the alpha channel, or you wont have a background.

10/26/2007

My particles aren't moving. They don't play the 3d animation (I use a ".iff" maya file insted of .png, but I don't see how that could be a problem)
What I'm saying is that the particles play always the same photo, and I don't know what I must press to activate them. I thought that it was loop from birth, but it isn't. Any idea?????????????

10/25/2007

hi. thanks a lot

10/23/2007

cool

10/21/2007

awesome tutorial!

and a little not to seb who posted a comment a little above me:

depth of field is a new effect of particular and is only available in a new version. if the particular verison you are using is too old you'll have only motion preview or full render and not all 4 options. go update.

10/20/2007

Dude you have given me a lot of insperation and like to thank you for it

10/16/2007

Excellent tutorial. It's great you are able to take time out of your schedule to to these.

10/16/2007

Very nice tutorial but I've got just one problem.
In Particular, I don't have "Full render + DOF square". I just have Motion Preview or Full Render.
I do turn on the DOF in the camera's option but nothing happen.
What's wrong with my plug-in?

Wow great Tutorail again. ;)
But I have a Problem. My Particles don´t get Blured by the depth of field. I don´t know why. I don´t have the Full Render DOF square Render mode. I Have just the Full Render Mode and Motion Prewiew. Is that a problem?

Can somebody help me?

Sorry I know my English is bad but I´m form German.

10/02/2007

love these tutorials, opens a new world to me, about intregrating 3dsmax and after effects.

10/02/2007

Great tut! One question: why is the outcome different when you apply the CC Glass effect on a pre-composed layer than just simply apply it on the layer with the fractal noise?

10/02/2007

Andrew you rocks, man!
Good background music from Massive Attack or Morcheeba, i don't remember but yes, remember the video. jeje. Nice subtle joke.
