Interoperability with Thinking Particles

Krakatoa v1.1.0 provides significantly improved support for Cebas Thinking Particles (TP) 2.5 and 3.0:

  • Particle positions and velocities are now accessed directly via the TP SDK.
  • Particle Groups can be selectively included or excluded from rendering via a dedicated Thinking Particles Groups rollout.
  • Particle Color and Density can now be controlled via User Channels called "Color" and "Density" - these channels can contain arbitrary color and float values generated using the large arsenal of mathematical functions available in Thinking Particles for effects driven by any other particle properties.
