Is it possible to turn the emitter to direct the particles in a user controled direction? Or is it possible to flock the particles emitted? This would be extremely useful for general use and extremely useful for a project that I'm hopping to be able to do in DBPro.

Thanks,

Ben

Look these up

Thanks for the list of commands DAZ. I've got this at home already. My question was, "is it possible to rotate the particle emiter or flock the particles?" I'm wondering if we could expose the emiter function through memblocks or pointers? Or if there is an easier way to implement this?

Thanks Again,

Ben

What was the point in that Daz???
I have no idea on how to rotate it, and I don't have the time to find out right now.

I suppose "Rotate Particles" might do for the first question?

Flock particles together? I assume you're talking about attractors (objects that, well, attract particles)

No, attractors are not supported by the DBPro particle system, it would be really kewl if they were (hint hint, wink wink allmighty developers )
