Afterburn, HyperSolids scaling.

[JohnnyRandom]

You could keyframe it???

Well,you can add a delete modifier to your Pflow specifying over what amount of time you want the particles to die out and then in afterburn you go to Hypersolids...choose Metaballs and then enable the AFC curve on Sphere Size thus specifying its starting size and ending size.....It should work....

Not in this case, as far as I know. As I want the scalling to happen on a particle aging kinda basis and per particle.
AFC curve does not seem to work for metaballs, only for spheres. but yeah thats the effect i would like to achieve..scalling up the metaballs "individually", rather than as a whole.
Dunno if I'm being clear.
I want the particles/metaballs to be very small when they born, but then as they spread out and age, they would grow in size.

Thanks entrancea.

Bah:banghead:...you not the only one, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why the particle age/afc curve was reading only the low value. Couldn't even get it to effectively function with an expression.

entrencea, good eye:)

He he....just sticking to basics dude;) ....
