A particle system scene node for creating snow, fire, exlosions, smoke...
A scene node controlling a particle System. The behavior of the particles can be controlled by setting the right particle emitters and affectors. You can for example easily create a campfire by doing this:
scene::IParticleSystemSceneNode* p = scenemgr->addParticleSystemSceneNode(); p->setParticleSize(core::dimension2d<f32>(20.0f, 10.0f)); scene::IParticleEmitter* em = p->createBoxEmitter( core::aabbox3d<f32>(-5,0,-5,5,1,5), core::vector3df(0.0f,0.03f,0.0f), 40,80, video::SColor(0,255,255,255),video::SColor(0,255,255,255), 1100,2000); p->setEmitter(em); em->drop(); scene::IParticleAffector* paf = p->createFadeOutParticleAffector(); p->addAffector(paf); paf->drop();
