NVIDIA CUDA particles sample (354 288)

"Fluid like" high particles nubmer (354288) collisions. It uses "particles" sample provided with CUDA SDK.

This short movie demonstrates capabilities of present day even low end graphic cards. It was rendered on GeForce 8400M GS, with only 128 MB of dedicated memory, still achieving about 3 fps (please notice that some GeForce 8800 cards are about 16 times faster!). With 32768 particles framerate was about 25fps. Unfortunately more particles would required more ram for GPU. With more then 400k particles this program crash on my laptop.

You have to edit the source

PLEASE HELP. How do i change the number of particles in there? can i edit those settings? Please nobody seems to answer that simple question and is obvious that it is posible... Thanks in advance...

How do I get this working? I have the CUDA driver and toolkit, but I'm not sure what to do next

wie hast du die anzahl der partikel geaendert?

schick mir doch mal die passende datei, ich will auch^^
