   Particle Illusion 3.0
   
 

Particle Illusion is a standalone particle effects application that is easy to use, fast, and powerful. Use it to quickly add amazing particle effects to any image, animation or video. If you think that particle systems are too complicated to use or are too slow, then you must not be using particle Illusion.

   Advantages:
   
 
  • Using OpenGL hardware acceleration, you'll get real-time (or near real-time) preview of most effects and ultra-fast rendering of final output.
  • Choose from an always-growing collection of preset effects from the ordinary (such as smoke, fire, explosions, water effects, sparkles) to the unusual (colorful artistic effects, strange undersea creatures).
  • Modifying an effect or creating a new one is simple. Since particle Illusion is "sprite-based" (uses images for all of the particles), you'll find it very easy to create new effects right away.

   Some of the new features in 3.0:
   
 
  • Forces - influence particles after they are created (wind for example).
  • Library manager: easily move emitters between libraries.
  • Super emitters: emitters that emit other emitters. Allows more realism and creativity - cool stuff!
  • Rendering engine enhancements including high-quality motion blur, field rendering, and improved alpha channel creation.
  • Area emitter "mask with image" option allows you to use any image or sequence as a mask for particle creation.
  • Property graph improvements: spline curves, removal of "min/max" restriction on particle type properties, and display of current graph values.
  • Many new color options, including "get color from layer" which allows you to simulate "displacement" effects in realtime.
  • Thumbnail preview for project files, library files, and emitters.
  • Dozens of interface improvements such as layouts, middle mouse button panning, mouse wheel zooming, and many new key shortcuts.
