Ep7 - Importing Meshes for Debris - Learn with Us: First Playable Grenade Explosion | BFX-U
This episode is all about giving your explosion effect a glow-up, and we’ll be encouraging you to experiment and try new techniques to add a bit of life to the explosion. This episode will cover:
Adding dirt, rocks, and debris to your explosion
Creating new particle components
Work with 3D meshes
Implement collisions
Your effects should be starting to really come together, but we know that there will be challenges still to face. Continue to try new ideas and if something isn’t quite working, then reach out and let us know.
