X-Emitter V1.5 Out

Hey. So here is X-Emitter version 1.5. A bit of a rehash of the underlying code makes this version the fastest version to date.

So if you don't know, this is my particle effect emission library (I suppose is the best way to describe it), X-Emitter. It started out as a simple box-emitter for particles, but it has since grown to be a more general purpose particle emission system. As can be seen in the screenshot, it works fairly well and, in my opinion, looks pretty professional - almost like Unity-caliber... Well, that's what I'd like to think, LOL.

Anyway, this version has been recoded to work with external script files that run as compiled code and looping logic (rather than logic in each particle), making this the fastest X-Emitter release to date. Here is a short list of particle effects present in this version:
  • Fire (planar)
  • Fire (blob)
  • Energy ball
  • Smoke (planar)
  • Smoke (volumetric)
  • Stream
  • Rising sparkle
  • Snow
  • Rain
Hopefully it can be useful to someone. So, Download X-Emitter Version 1.5 Here. As always, have fun!

  2. What do you mean? Does it not work? It should look like the fire particle effect in the screenshot above (third from the left). I think it's a pretty good cartoon-ish fire.

  4. Thanks again. I think this might be the fastest I can get it to run - perhaps by simplifying the particle looping code I could get a faster speed. I might try that in the next version.
