    How do I make sand pouring from a bucket and to the floor? The pouring sand should look tapered from the bucket and gets wider as it gets near the floor. Thanks guys!

    Using whatever particle tool you prefer, make it directional with only a very small spread.

    You may want to look into Newton for realistic physics. It’s a 2d engine though.

    Thanks, Michael. I’m now trying to experiment with particle world. Can you point me to a tutorial to make realistic pouring sand? Thanks and God bless.
