Thought I would move my fume and afterburn stuff here. it's always a WIP.
Worked on the car explotion. Tighten up the flame on the car after the explotion. Was told looks to much like godzila town burning..haha
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSD9ll4akdwGot a new afterburn animation I'm learning. I bought the allen mckay cg acadamy master afterburn cd's.
grad stuff......a..screen shot still have a long way to go.

Sounds like fun, so you're using FumeFx/Afterburn? Their integrated nicely, correct?
-

thanks,
I'am not using them together in the same animation. FFX and Afterbun are two differnt worlds. I guess I could. But I have not seen the need yet.

Generally i would say fumeFX has made afterburn redundant, at least from the small amount of it that i've used.

Cam, I think maybe one day this mite be true But right now there is no way I could do what I do in AB in FFX. Fume takes up so much ram and hard drive space to store the simulation my workstation would crash. (Duel CPU with 4 GB ram) But that's about it. Leaning how to do AB stuff in FFX I still have a long way to so I guess we will see over time. I have been over at cgtalk they have a lot of super great people to learn from like Allen McKay and a bunch of others that share files and info on fume. Best source on the web.
Thanks guys

Nah I don't think so....after burn is great for quick and simple stuff....for example...I needed some fog rendered out today for a shot....so I setup a pcloud, applied afterburn (changed the shader to octane, and tweaked about 5 settings) and voila...great looking fog.
Fumefx would take MUCH longer for the same effect.

Yeah,
I think your right. I mean fume is great and all but like you said t, AB is fast and once you learn it you can whip out stuff you need.

thanks guys.....I still have a lot to do on this one but I hope to finish up soon. I'm having some hard times with the scripting, to animate the the debris for flying objects, After that its just texturing and maybe a few small things and I think I'm done. I must say it's coming along well for me.
thanks again

just an update on the afterburn....... Just some textures and then animating to see how she looks so far. I'll still have to fix a bunch of stuff I known..always do

Looking pretty sweet mate! The flying paper really brings it to life.
One thing I'd say, is don't start the camera shake until the camera is really moving backwards....try to keep the camera a little more stationary while it's not moving fast (ie...at the beginning)...or else you give the effect of the camera man having a seizure

update.Still texturing. Going to renderout in passes on this one. I need to so I can render out a heat distortion pass and ad in the comp software. gives the fire some heat. Right now looks cool but it looks cold.

-

Update on afterburn..........did the heat pass today.......juat a pflow with afterburn and a matt shadow texture on all objects animated. This is renderd out separate from the rest of the scene passes. Well I'm fishing up on textures and I can render today. I will be using conbustion to put all the layers together.
-
kilroy 787 posts
ok ......I renderd all the passes out and everything went pretty good but I did not like the lighting at all so I will be rerendering today. I did get everything into combustion aded blur to stuff, Played around and got used to the software. Looked pretty cool.
My first time doing this this way.

darn thats a really bad working environment!
i had a drinking boss 2 years ago at the beginning he was really nice and diddnt drink at all but somhow he started to came to work middays drunk and yelled at people what a crap they were and how sh.t work they do and all the silly stuff. I quitted after 3 month after he started drinking. The last 3 month were really miserable!
And the ironic thing is that he is one of the most wanted ad directors in Turkey!
