Tutorial: Simulating Twisters & Tornadoes In EmberGen

In this new comprehensive and chaptered tutorial, Ben Harker of JangaFX will guide you through the whole process of creating a twister smashing through a barn with EmberGen's Particle Emitter.

You will learn how useful frozen particle setups can be for creating neat debris and destruction effects, and pick up a couple of neat tricks for particle visibility. Then you'll learn how to also easily animate the positions of multiple forces at once.

And while you could import any model you like, you can find the same 3D model used for the barn in the video in the description, as well as preset files. Ben Harker also encourages artists to reach out on the dedicated Discord server if they have any questions or need assistance.

With EmberGen, you can create all kinds of fantastic simulations. Just last week we shared Fabio Nascimento's beautiful cloud formations created with EmberGen's trial version:
