  Particles from a color

  Posted by Plugde2 on April 11, 2006 at 3:52 pm

  Does anyone know of a way to emitt particles from a color….Example I have a battery moving around in 3d space and want electical particles to emitt from around it and sort of trail its movement…So I was hoping to render the alpha of it and then use the white area as a a reference for the emitter..so the electric particles only comes from the white area on the screen….

  thanks for any help

  Here’s a how-to:
