particleIllusion 3.0 If you think that particle systems are too complicated to use or are too slow, then you must not be using particleIllusion. particleIllusion is a standalone particle effects application that is easy to use, fast, and powerful. Use it to quickly add amazing particle effects to any image, animation or video.   (640x480, 300 frames) rendered to AVI in 73secs (4.1 fps) on a PIII - 533 MHz, 384 MB RAM, GeForce 2 GTS, Windows 2000 Fast particleIllusion uses OpenGL, so you'll time most of your renders in frames per second instead of seconds (or minutes) per frame. Of course the number of effects that you use, and the parameters of those effects have an impact on performance   Easy There are hundreds of preset effects available (smoke, fire, explosions, sparkles, fireworks just to name a few) to add to your project with only a click or two of the mouse does it get easier than that?   Powerful An particleIllusion emitter is made up of one or more "particle types". Each particle type is a collection of three main components: 1) Settings (such as Life, Number, Size, Velocity, Size Over Life, etc.) 2) Color and transparency gradients 3) A shape image.     Fun Believe it or not, you will have fun with particleIllusion. You may not intend to, but you won't be able to help yourself.
