It’s been a while since I did a particle tutorial, but here’s a new one at last. I tried something different for this one. Instead of putting lots of screenshots in this post, I combined them into a video file and published it on Vimeo. I didn’t put in on Youtube since you can’t download the original video file there, wich can come in handy from time to time. As usual, this tutorial assumes you’re familiar with Torque and the particle editor.

If the streaming video isn’t clear enough, you can download the original WMV file on the video page. Also available are the tutorials as OpenOffice.org Impress and Microsoft Powerpoint slideshows. And finally, you can download the particle effect file with the particle sprites.
