Simulating a Disintegration Effect in Maya
In this exciting course, we will delve into the simulation of a disintegration effect using Maya's powerful nCloth particles and fluid dynamics tools. Software required: Maya 2015.
What you'll learn
In this exciting course, we will delve into the simulation of a disintegration effect using Maya's powerful nCloth particles and fluid dynamics tools. We will cover in detail the process of breaking an efficient mesh for disintegration purposes and later emitting the detailed secondary particles and fluid simulations. This course also covers a wide variety of tools and techniques along with MEL functions and expressions. By the end of this training, you will have a clear understanding of how to simulate a detailed disintegration effect. Software required: Maya 2015.
