[OcelottMaster]

Not sure if you still see these comments but wow... amazing job

[DeKoVFX]

@OcelottMaster

Thank you :)

[nfguler]

One question please. For what did you use vray exactly in this animation? I know what is vray and I used it and as i know you render particles in krakatoa not in vray.

[DeKoVFX]

@nfguler

Vray was used in the last shot for waterdrops.

I have 1 question: what is that strange thing you wrote at 1:05??

Wonderfull work!

[DeKoVFX]

@caramelllllo

Thank you!

This animation was created as intro to a website. And in the end isn't my words, but sounds like a

"A place of excellence.

A place to rest your sences".

[caramelllllo]

@DeKoVFX what website?

[DeKoVFX]

@caramelllllo

Unfortunately website, for wich this intro was created, currently have another design.

[caramelllllo]

@DeKoVFX all the time spent for nothing as always. By the way, the music is awesome, what's the name?

@cre8iveNode

Thanks. I wish more in the future :)))

[VTeixeira83]

Fantastic work.

How many particles did you use to create this effect?

Did you needed a lot of partitions?

Congratulations.

Cheers

[DeKoVFX]

@VTeixeira83

Thanks.

One character was about 6-12 milion particles, depends on the shot.

This project was created in year 2008, at that time Krakatoa had ability for partition only with Deadline software, so I used only one partition.

[VTeixeira83]

@DeKoVFX I see.

Fantastic work.

Congratulations

I've messing around with Krakatoa lately but nothing like this.

Congrats once again.

Cheers

great! spending so much time on the behavier was really worth it!

keep it up! :)

[DeKoVFX]

@overphloh

Fluids/particles workflow used in this animation, was researched in 1 week. All following work was "just" to put this on every character in every shot. I had only 2,5 workstations and 2 hands (surprise surprise). Simulate/Render clicked about 160 times. That's why this part took me 2 months :)

Thanks anyway.

[omfgsjoc]

I wish someone could make a tutorial on how to use krakatoa :(

[DeKoVFX]

@omfgsjoc Soon, very soon. Stay tuned... ;)

[omfgsjoc]

@DeKoVFX

Just one question plz? i wanted to make things flying around (more at each other like they're fighting) how do I make something fly around like you've done in this vid? I need to do this for my assignment (i think i've set myself a difficult task) if i know this then i can just use normal particles as i wait for a krakatoa tutorial (i'm a n00b to 3ds max btw T_T) ah, i think you used a following path method but i'm not sure...please explain? lol

[DeKoVFX]

@omfgsjoc Source for the fluids/particles was animated characters meshes. Good luck ;)

[omfgsjoc]

@DeKoVFX ohhh, hehe, thanx. I'm still gonna wait fot the tutorial :D
