Realistic bubbles simulation

[Tekano]

The Wobble Problem

Generate a vector that has a random value for the X and Z axes, and multiply that value by the size and the speed. Add that vector the the particle’s position.

The big particles will wobble more than the small ones, and all particles will wobble progressively more as they gain speed.


Hopefully that gives you enough info to get started. Ive attached a compound as well which has this setup, get an empty point cloud, creat a simulated ice tree, attach this compound, then just attach a torpedo emitting object and hopefully should work

and heres the video of it in action, please bear in mind that in the original post by Francois that he is using an image sequence of realistic moving bubbles (possibly live action) mapped to a grid that lasts for 100 frames. Am not sure which approach you are wanting to take, but to randomly select the starting frame of this sequence for each 'bubble' is not difficult to accomplish, Of course you need the sequence to begin with ;)

Wow, that's some interesting/great stuff you cooked up, Tekano...

wow, thank you for that realy good explanation!
makes it so understandable!

Tekano, thanks for the shared... its really helped and mean alot to us who got problems with script and ice tree setup.

Thanks again for your help and i believe alot of peaple will appreciated your posted.



Best Regards,
