Hello,

I want to animate waterfall with particles, but there is one problem I cant figure out. I use Image blur to add some blur to particles. When I render the animation, the waterfall looks fine, a little blured particles make flow rather convincing. But sometimes the waterfall gets VERY blured. It seems as if it no longer linked to gravity space warp and whole waterfall gets very defocused. After a moment it focuses back to normal state. Has anyone faced such problem??? Can you suggest any sollution? Thanks.


I use blizzard particle system, assign material with fallof and noise added to opacity map. I also link it to gravity warp and some deflectors.

I've sometimes experienced what you describe here... I have a feeling it might have more to do with a particular video codec you use for rendering... not sure, but it might be something to look into...

I have thought about it too. I tried to render uncompressed animation, but I get the same effect. :shrug:
