Particles Part 09 - Rain Part 01 - Setup
Added 2020-01-16 13:22:12 +0000 UTCThis time we'll create an often used effect, a wet road with rain pouring down. While particles are the meat of the effect it really starts to shine by using a wetmap for shading. After coming up with a particle setup we'll explore a cool way to create a wetmap from the particles using a 2D Houdini volume and COPs and thus avoiding shading artifacts, normally introduced by poor geometric resolution. A future part of the particle series will deal with shading the scene in Redshift.

Amazing tutorial! Very understandable. Curious; How might I go about using the wetmap image sequence with Arnold?

2020-01-17 06:10:38 +0000 UTCawesome, this one came in right in time when I needed it. Just out of curiosity do you have any plan to make a tutorial about advance baking techniques like what you did here?!

2020-01-17 06:06:34 +0000 UTCHi there, thanks for the reply. Yes, I was just assuming you could use a cop network directly in the sop solver. So yeah that makes total sense then, thanks.

2020-01-16 19:37:31 +0000 UTCHey Magnus, what do you mean by using pixels in the SOP solver? You cannot use images in SOPs...

2020-01-16 18:14:40 +0000 UTCReally nice tutorial! Just out of curiosity, why use a 2D volume instead of pixels in the sop solver?
