Blender Nightclub Laser Projection Through Smoke Test Render

A mercifully quick render of a test in Blender 2.5 Alpha 1 to see if my idea about combining simulated laser light and simulated smoke worked. It did! That's three things I've tried this month which worked exactly as I intended. At this rate, I'll be verging on competent by the end of the decade! WooHoo! :)

It looks real good man I need to learn how to do some of this stuff, It would look cool to have my prime walking out of smoke with like some red emergency lights spinning around.

@roscoejcollins That sounds like a very cool idea! The smoke sim process in 2.5's a bit complicated and certainly not intuitive but once you get the hang of it it's quite flexible, I'm finding.

Cool *click* Subscribed! Keep it up!

@SavageDogg38 Why thank you Dogg! Up it will be kept. Just try keeping it down. ;)

Great effect. It give me an idea of making a laser scan line scene.

@leonlim2008 Thanks buddy! If you struggle with the lighting and smoke (as I did...an awful lot) you can have the blend file for reference. I'll be fascinated to see what you come up with. Have fun dude! :)

thats awesome

[TechnoStickmen]

this is really cool! i finally got the hang of smoke. unlike the fluid simulator it was very confusing especially with what needed to be done to render it. I can't even fathom this yet lol. awsome job

[roscoejcollins]

Ya im not really all that in to 2.5 yet becouse I dont know where everything is yet so im still using 2.49 becouse I can work real fast in it.
