Flocking

[Per-Anders]

Thinking particles is just a particles system, you can do very primitive crowd simulation with it if you wish (though it is hard work) but flocking is pretty easy to do with it.

you can also get the free tdem plugin from www.ditools.de.vu and create certain flocking style effects (seel www.jeremyw.com for some excellent examples) using just the standard inbuilt particles system in cinema.
