not seen file on website...but might be worth you pm'ing him and see if he still has it.

check the resources-tuts thread for bunks TP stuff might be on that site also.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been to his site before, but not since my hunt for info on PBlurp. I think I found some stuff that will help me out (thanks mdme_sadie)

I will look for bunks TP stuff.

I also emailed Maxon support. Anyway, I'll post what I figure out so that other people can play with PBlurp.

if you check the manual addendum it explains pblurp node

on another c4d portal there are 2 tuts or examples but its not in a language i understand and you need to register

Took me long enough -- but my excuse is that I had to wait for my new hardware.

I'm not so much as a manual reader, but the best resource on blurp turned out to be the 8.1 addendum that I had sitting on my hard drive already. Duh!

Anyway, for those interested here's my intital experiment. Not meant to be visually stunning. Also I apologize for the much copied freeze-time-and-spin-from-the-matrix type of effect, but I wanted a better look at the particles created.

thats cool...the right to left rotation is a bit over the top..but it works really well. the thing i saw done with it was an exploding and re-attaching head mesh! wierd huh.
thanks for letting us know how you got on and sharing the file...much appreciated.
