[Archive] Corona Scatter 2.0 / Scatter with collision detection

« on: 2014-11-12, 16:05:33 »

Scatter now has collision detection, which tests intersections with bounding boxes.
I wish this would go faster, but I have to do this in my spare time, around commuting to work for my day job.

[Archive] Corona Scatter 2.0 / Scatter with scaling by texture map

« on: 2014-10-15, 14:37:23 »

So controlling scale by texture map has been implemented. So far it's only for the 3 axis's, not uniform in all directions. I will probably do that next, after I catch up on sleep, and stop falling asleep at work as a result of working on Corona. :)

This screen grab shows, for instance, Z-scaling determined by texture map.

[Archive] Corona Scatter 2.0 / Scatter with density map per distribution object

« on: 2014-09-27, 19:42:06 »

Wanted to post some updated images showing the work in progress today:

Density map can now be assigned per distribution object.
And now the scattered objects stick to the distribution object through all it's rotation and move transforms.

[Archive] Corona Scatter 2.0 / First screen grab of scatter with texture map

« on: 2014-09-17, 05:12:38 »

This is a first peek at the improved scatter object, that is part of the Corona package.

The first task I decided to tackle was to make the scattering follow a texture map.

See the attached image:

It's taken a while since I have a day job, and I'm doing this in my spare time. I have lots of ideas for this one, but for today, this is a good first step.

[Archive] Corona Scatter 2.0 / Hello

« on: 2014-08-28, 11:47:07 »

My name is Chris Johnson

I am going to be helping out with updating the scatter tool for the Corona Renderer. As such I am going to need feedback on features as they get implemented.

Currently I work full for a day job somewhere else, so I will be devoting my off hours to this project. This should be a fun project, which I really look forward to.
