LittleBigPlanet 2 Beta - Custom Water Volumes - Tutorial Part 1

PART 1 of 2 - Please see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UWP8so7Izs For Part 2
Here we'll examine an idea for simulating custom bodies of water in the world, aside from the global water plane. Using impact sensors and tags, we can simulate any shape of water in the world. Although in the tutorial I say it's contained in a force field, you can contain it in any way you want - make lakes, fountains, sinks. You can also move and emit volumes of water, which is the closest thing we can get to a true volumetric fluid simulation.

I'm sure the water effects can be made nicer. I'm also hoping you can tell there's bubbles being emitted.

Great video sackbot stuff is cool but when you say your title is about custom water volumes , it would be nice if you actually shared how to do that instead of the misdirection on all the sackbot stuff, what a waste, what use of the sackbot tutorial if no one can follow making the custom water volumes , Plllleaaaaaasssssseeeeeeee

[MrFoofles]

@shunyata33 It's just holo with a tag. The whole "water volume" effect comes from the sackbot itself, otherwise the water are just blobs of holo with the waterfall material from eve's asylum behind them. I mention in the video that it uses an impact sensor with a tag.

HELP! You dont tell how to make the water. I Dont have LBP 2, but i wanna get it first. So... You can now make like the shape of water? Or when you do a tag with a Label it Does that object, or can you do like Enable that it tracks that objects, not a round.

[MrFoofles]

@moviemaker310 I can't make sense of half of what you said. The water itself uses holographic material and an animated running water material you can find in the game. It just for looks, it does not act like water. Holographic material does not block physical objects so we can intersect the volume of holographic material and this gives us our water volume - Giving this holo a tag we are able to test for an intersection with it in particular.

oh pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis teach me how to get and do that.

[rileytwist88]

this is so confusing!

[rileytwist88]
