Field Pyro Material
Method #
A 3D field material suitable for pyro / explosions. The field density is used to control absorption and scattering, and the temperature of the field is used via black body simulation to output an emissive colour. The Scattering parameter is used to control the ratio of scattering vs absorption.
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Tint Colour
Tints the field.
Density
Scales the density of the field.
Scattering Colour
Controls the ratio of scattering vs absorption per colour channel.
Scattering
The ratio of scattering vs absorption.
Temperature Limits
If enabled, the temperature min and max values are used. otherwise the values from the field 3d root are used.
- Use root temperature : Conform to the temperature limits set by the root.
- Override : Override the root temperature limits.
Flame Emissiveness
Scales the emissive output.
Min Flame Temperature
The threshold above which the temperature contributes emissiveness.
Min Temperature (K)
The minimum temperature of the field for black body simulation, in degrees kelvin.
Min Temperature (K)
The maximum temperature of the field for black body simulation, in degrees kelvin.
Inputs
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
