Hi Appolux,

I recently looked into the latest version of Blender and I'm amazed about the general progress. I really do like it in the meanwhile and I've once again added it to my standard tool set on my desktop :D
... erm... just a few side notes...

Well I actually wanted to ask you, whether particle rendering in general has improved or will improve in Blender. Will there be any volumetric rendering?
In your example above, I still can see the classic Blender sparkly looking halo render style which doesn't look that real to me :hmm:

Would be great to have some improvements here...

As usual, there's a workaround - if you parent an object to the particle system and enable dupliverts, that object will be instanced on every particle, rather than using the standard halo effect. You can then do tricks with texture mapping to fake volumetrics. Using metaballs (which interact with each other) instanced as the particles can be neat for fluids or smoke etc..

[Tommi]

Sounds clever, brkn. I'm going to give it a try...

Thanks Apollux to keep us informed.
It's great, thanks.
