If the Time Machine Particle was my overly complicated flagship particle effect of advanced features, this is it's opposite. It's a very simple widget, and all you do is to create a particle effect in the tool that comes in the zip. When you're satisfied with your effect, create a particle "generator" object from an event inside your own application, and set it's alterable string to the given effect code.
Thus, one event with two actions is enough for rather complicated effects :)
Here's the source file to the effect design application, for those who want to edit the widget's functionality.
I notice when you start it up, its the Knytt Stories Menu Sinus Particles.
That is a good Widget.
Knytt Stories does not use this widget, but the widget is loosely based on the same concept.
pretty cool :)
cool!!
btw... Do you have any opinions about it? Is it easy enough to use? I'm planning to add one more feature to the widget soon, so if there's anything uncertain about it, I can improve that!
OMG, this is awesome!
edit:
Maybe you can add a life/fade to the whole effect, like a fade out for the particles using transparency, etc :)Quote:

Thanks! I'm planning to add two more modulation parameters, that modulates the modulation offset.
