cant find Shaun Freeman tutorial on particle fire and smoke.

[north]

can someone tell me where to find the tutorial on particle, fire, and smoke? that was created by Shaun Freeman??

I was thinking that tutorial was by Colin Freeman but I may have my Freeman bros mixed up.

I'll keep looking... (there are a lot of type of smoke and a whole lot of related topics in the forum... search on 'smoke')

 

If it was by Colin he's taken that tutorial down from his website.

 

While waiting for the tutorial you are after you may find success with some of the other resources available. Will Sutton for instance has fire and smoke on his Balrog model if you have access to that.

 

Holmes Byrant's sprite tutorials provide a good undestanding of the underlying settings and options used for creating smoke effects. If you understand variables you can adapt a lot of methods used with other programs.

 

The various topics on cigarette smoke demonstrate potential for lofting smoke.

 

Volumetrics will do wonders for that hazy room filled with thick smoke look.

 

There is a really cool project file posted by Javier Poot here:

Edit... sorry. Not the right link.

 

There was a reason I suggested you wait.

exercise 16.....it mention his name in the first post...though if you have others that does the samething and more, that would be nice as well. i am downloading those files

hmm those two files were videos of a mother and kids doing things...not AM

Well... I did confirm it was Shaun's tutorial and that it is no longer in the same place on the FTP site.

I believe it was placed on the Extra DVD if you got one of those.

I know it wasn't put on the original Extra CD as files of that size would have filled up the CD too quickly.

is the extra DVD all about? it has a bunch of tutorials on how to model characters???

I think that Balrog is on the "extras", so if you download it you will be able to look at how the fire/smoke particles are done

[north]

where can i download it? is this a video tutorial?

[zandoriastudios]

It was a model that I made and later donated to the community as part of some "extras" CD...I don't know where you can download the rest of that stuff, but here is the Balrog:
