Extend the presets of
Optipustics:Free
Particle Brush Settings

|
Project Dogwaffle's particle tracing
system (Optipustics) is
highly customizeable. This page contains examples of what can be
created with just a few strokes
buy using various Dogwaffle settings.
You can right-click and save the *.opt files shown here. If you copy
the *.opt files into the folder where Dogwaffle is installed then
you'll see that they will be recognized as optipustics presets
the next time you start Dogwaffle. Note that some of the settings
here may already be in your system, because
there is a good collection
of presets in the PD 1.6 release. A few additional ones shown here were
posted by Dan Ritchie or others in the Dogwaffle forum at
Yahoogroups which is another good source for more samples.
Finally, keep in mind that you can and are encouraged to change the
many parameters to explore variants of these and create and save your
own new
settings. And if you find a new great preset you'd like to donate don't
be shy and email it to us at dogwaffle {nospam} @ thebest3d.com along
with a Jpeg
image showing an example of what you can do with that setting. |

Sometimes, changing just one little parameter value or
working with
different colors and opacity modulation in the color gradient can
create
very interesting variants. Try the Garland for instance, and change the
number of splits from 4 to 7, it will make for a much more fluffy,
almost furry appearance. And don't forget also that some of these are
best used with animations and in combination with a brush or glow mode,
even through the stroke player in order to spread the optipustics
drawing effect across a number of frames (for example the fireworks
settings). How to install: Click the link of a chosen particle setting (or right-click or select 'Save Link Target As...' or equivalent depending on your browser) to save the .opt file. Be sure to save the file into the proper folder for your version of the software: |
