Re: Balls, hypervoxels and and particle fx

Hi

I'm trying to do a load of blue balls being mixed into or 'whisked' into some yellow balls. I thought the best way of doing this would be to do surface hypervoxels for all the balls but found that after turning the blending function off in the hypervoxels panel, one set of the balls is always in the foreground?!! (I need this turned off to keep the ball shape)

So, I thought I'd use FX_Linker instead and model a simple sphere for each ball colour, but then I found there's a limit on how many objects Layout can take - looks like 2000, and I probably need double that amount of balls in the scene.

Is there anything else I can do?!

Cheers for any help,

Alex



The LW config files can be adjusted to allow more objects so I hear. Just use a text editor and find the right place.
