    Just modify some of the flame emitter or something, it won’t take long and people will probably be happy with it.

    I just made one using a Fire Emitter, Water Emitter, and lightning emitter.

    I think it would be nice to have something like exploding planets, falling leafs (fall then :)), better waving water emmitters, better blowing in the wind emitters, like grass and so on

    I see there are several oscilliscope emitters, but I don’t see any seismograph-type emitters?

    I have had pi for a long time though I don’t get to use it very often. It appears to me that so many of the new libraries look pretty much alike, same old, same old…we’ve got explosions galore, emitters that barely look like waterfalls, lots of fireworks and not much else. In the very first library there was a walking mouse. Never needed to use it but I would like more like that. Lets have actual characters/subjects….we already have a couple of fish and crab emitters that look a bit cartoonish but how about some realistic looking ones, sharks, whales, cars, animals of all sorts, waving grass, planes, reefs, real objects that could be inserted into a project. That’s what I would like to see. There are a million background animation companies out there but none produce objects with alphas such as I mention that could be used in an app such as pi, Motion, AE. If they did, I think big money could be made. Not everyone can draw and create these type of animations using Maya and the like.

    I’d like to see more instrument stuff. A better looking heart monitor, more realistic radar/sonar, etc…

    Grunge is also an “in-thing” right now.

    Hi Alan.

    I guess i have an idea for you, for new emitters.
    It is something about i has been waiting for years.
    Whats about shooting impacts on the ground ( like on the sand, earth or metal), or on the wall, probabily on water (you have some splashes, but not looks like a shoot).
    Regards.
