smoke in a cube

[Adam Trachtenberg]

You could use pyrocluster or you could map textures to planes inside the cube. You’d be better off with pyrocluster if it needs to be animated.

everyone talks about pyrocluster. I can’t find it in the program. where would i look for it. In the content browser is only gives me like 8 still pictures.

[Zach Gunter]

ultimately it will just be a still image.

If you are going for a still image I suggest placing a bitmap on a plane inside the cube like Adam suggested.

You can make nice smoke with a light and noise too. There is a thread at c4d cafe that has a few example project files posted search Mograph Smoke.

Pyro cluster is found in the the materials manager. (default bottom of the screen)
materials: file: shader there you will find a volume tracer and pyrocluster… for pryro to show up you need to put the volume tracer on an enviroment object. Enviroments can be found in the lights drop down menu. Then place the pyrocluster on an emitter…play a few frames and render.

Inside the pyrocluster material you can choose smoke, fire and a few others.

Check out DPIT Nature Spirit (commercial). It�s the very best solution for realistic smoke animation. Inside a cube shape is the easiest thing it can do. Check out the plugin here: http://www.dpit2.de

For a still image you could use it of course too, but maybe an image map is faster and easier here.

I did not really think that smoke in a box could be the easyest thing any plug in could do until i got it.
Haha one botton…thats really cool.
