Blender - Sprite Particles for Realtime VFX:
By leveraging the Geometry Nodes, the Blender - Sprite Particles for Real-Time VFX tool transforms dynamic visual effect creation artistry. Drawing from gaming industry innovations, users can now generate water splashes, bonfires, smoke, and steam effects swiftly and effortlessly.
Instead of the previously painstaking hours of simulation baking using flat cards and animated 2D textures, these tools allow for instant stunning results. In projects where .blend files are used, effects can simply be dragged and dropped, maintaining all necessary settings so that parameter modifications yield animations in real time.
Included in this asset pack is the GeoSpritesV2 MasterNode, a modifier/node with Geometry Nodes that allows both simple and intricate effects to be generated. Using the included shader node groups with an empty template, users can create custom sprite objects quickly. Within the package are shader nodes and controller node presets alongside sprite objects for varied effects, including fire, smoke, and water. Also included are demo effects such as abstract trails and fireworks systems, which illustrate the capabilities of the GeoSpritesV2 MasterNode.
