NOTE: It seems that this setup might have problems in 2.49b. If you feel like your setup does not work like it should, try it with a Blender version of 2.46 or 2.47, thanks.

This setup has emitter particles in plane object and reactor particles in Suzanne object. Suzanne gets destroyed by plane object's particles by using the reactor particles with explode modifier.

HD version is available.

    Thank you for the compliment! If you ever publish it somewhere on the net, I'd be very interested to see it. But, if you put my name there, I think at least Janne Karhu's (jahka) name should be there too. ;)

    Ok, I've downloaded the tutorial but I haven't watched it yet. Can you use this in the game engine?
  • Hannu Hoffrén 3 years ago
    I think this is not possible in the current game engine (248.1).

    u will say me noob, but i follow all the tutorial and i can't do that
  • Hannu Hoffrén 2 years ago
    Was it some exact part where things got confusing?
  • blenderCGartist 1 year ago
    well i have the same problem i am using 2.49b not working at all
  • Hannu Hoffrén 1 year ago
    Yep, there's something going on with 2.49b. Did you try it with 2.46 or 2.47?
  •  
  • AsLo 2 years ago
    I think it haven't confusing things, but, my blender do rare things, for example:
    -when i change the visualitzation (Point -> Object), (and the name of the object) The particles starts in another random point of the grid. Any idea about what happened?

    PD: Sorry again for my bad english :p
  • Hannu Hoffrén 2 years ago
    The object you are referring to needs to be at zero location [0,0,0]. A quick way to move it there is Alt+G. Any other problems?

    This is so frickin awesome!!!! Learnt a coupla things that might help everyone - if I'm wrong on these PLEASE set me straight:
    1. Let it bake all the way or you might get particles instead of shrapnel
    2. If you have force-fields in your scene, those will attract or repel your shrapnel just like it would any other particle
    3. It doesn't seem to work with boids particles, so stick to ol' Ike (Newtonian)
    4. Use "Split Edges" on the explode modifier for that torn apart look (strong force)
    5. It looks so cool you will want to explode everything you ever made!!!

    dont work for me... on 2.49b

    dont know why but the money never destroy by particles.

    could you share the file?
  • Hannu Hoffrén 2 years ago
    Sorry for the late reply, here's a 2.49b file:
    decent.fi/hhoffren/reactor.blend
  • Max Puliero 2 years ago
    thankyou! this file works perfect!

    will study it :D

    thankyou again.
  • Hannu Hoffrén 2 years ago
    If it works, great. There seems to be some weird behavior with the reactor particles in 2.49b. Here is one thread in BA: blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1525218
