We need to create a new node called FastNoise and pipe that into the pTurbulence.

We can add in slightly more variation by going into the Region Tab and changing the Mode to When inside Region and set the Region to Bitmap. Something that I don’t like about the pTurbulence is, that the turbulence is distributed pretty uniformly. I know what numbers I like already, I will increase the strength on all three Axis and change the Density to 63. It adds an (almost) random force to our particles. We want them to behave in a more interesting way, so we will introduce a pTurbulence force. Currently, they’re moving to the right so we will change this by changing the Angle Z to 90 degrees. ( 05:05) pTurbulence I will choose a very small number of 0.007. We will go back to the Controls Page because right now, our particles are simply spawning and eventually dying without doing anything. I will keep the Size bigger for now, so it’s easier to see them. We can open the Size Controls and increase the Size. We will head into the Style Tab and change the Style to NGon and under NGon Type Circle.

Now they inherit the color of the image but are too small to see. When this has updated, we can see that particles are being spawned exactly where we want, but they’re still white so we go into the Controls Tab and under Color change this to Use Color from Region. (For a slightly more detailed description, click here) ( 03:43) We will pipe the Emitter Animation into the newly created input on the pEmitter. Nothing fancy is happening so we will select the pEmitter, go to its Region Tab and set the Region to Bitmap. Now we can see that this has created a sphere that emits white points. You won’t be able to view this node until we added in a pRender. Let’s add in a particle Emitter, which is simply called pEmitter.
