Hey,

I am learning Particle Systems and I would like to create a Electricity Effect by changing the coordinate positions of the individual particles.
But, i need some kind of expression to make this really look like electricity and so i havent found a formula, expression describing this mathematical.
Does maybe someone here knows something like that?

Thanks

    The procedural example package has a good starter effect. It manipulates individual particles in the array of a particle system.

    Note: this example uses the old Unity particle system. You can still use it, but you will have to change it if you want to use Shuriken. Still a good demo.

    Thanks,

    I use Houdini and I had a look at the code.
    I think I can figure out how he made this and learn something from it.
