Particle effects / Fluid
Hi! I would like to ask here if Esenthel Engine supports particle effects similar to fluid, or if there are fluid/viscosity etc. If that's not avalaible, how can I simulate cartoony-splatter explosion? Something similar to an egg that breaks, a volcano explosion, or a splash.... Thanks smile

If that's not possible, I will use PhysX SDK, that is free.

Y fluid simulation is not supported currently but i don't have knowledge on how easy it would be to integrate a similar solution.

Okay, fluid simulation is not supported.
But, is there a particle system?
------
If not, I will use the PhysX SDK, with C++ code.
Yes, it should be easy to integrate in Visual Studio.

Yes of course there is a particle system it just doesn't support collision.

I don't need collision smile
Please can you post here a screenshot/link of a particle system so I can see it? Thanks a lot

Yes there are many good tutorials and you take a good idea about the built-in engine functionality.

A vid with fire particles.

And the options available.

Thank you! However, can you affirm that other types of particles are avalaible? Something similar to sand, dust, liquid drops.... smile
