Version 0.9.4 released
6th March 2008
Now in SVN and download. The core features haven’t changed but I have added a number of new behaviours.
- Access all properties in Actions, Initializers, Counters and Activities so they can be modified while the emitter is running.
- AlphaInit initializer sets the initial alpha value for all particles
- ImageClasses and SharedImages initializers set the particle image to one selected from a group, with weighting to adjust the selection
- MouseExplosion action pushes particles away from the mouse
- MouseGravity action pulls particles towards the mouse
- TurnAwayFromMouse action causes particles to turn away from the mouse
- GreyscaleZone uses a greyscale image to define a zone, with weighting based on the luminence of each pixel
- Pulse counter emits particles in regular bursts
- PerformanceAdjusted counter adjusts the rate of particle emission if the frame-rate drops
- TwoWay energyEasing functions have an energy peak half-way through the particle’s lifetime
