FumeFX Krakatoa Particle Simulation 18M Particles 4K HDR VIDEO

Particle motion done using FumeFX fluid simulation that drives the particles, this is then used as a particle force that is then cached and rendered using Krakatoa.
This particle simulation has 18 Million particles.
Particle cache for the simulated range of 1000 frames takes 350GB
The rendered HDR image sequences take around 100GB
The FumeFX simulation cache takes 23GB
So in total around half a terabyte of data, I had to buy a new SSD raid just to be able to process this.

Absolutely stunning video! I am learning particle flow and the info here really helps. 18M particles! I am playing with 10-50k at most : )

Amazing!

[@CosmoDev69]

wonderful

[@mdsanima]

WOW! This is awesome!

wow that awsome keep it up 👍

[@radgecs]

You can sell this as a pack of different angles :D

[@Samota0]

When it started, did you use an audio controller to map the wavelength the smoke output in FFX, or was that just convenient timing for the song? Looks great.

[@TeraPixel]

Ah the song was kind of fit and timed to the video.
I would really like to make something that is fully driven by audio next. I learned a lot of cool stuff when making this so i think i could make something very pretty!

um a tutorial for this please

[@keepcalm7839]

Can I download it?

[@callgamer1609]

How did you move fumefx within the circle? Thanks

[@TeraPixel]

There are several forces that affect the simulation. Vortex mainly.

Whats the song on this?

[@TeraPixel]

This is from mirror's edge catalyst. Song name is: solar fields - rezoning district

[@HenkkaMJ]

@@TeraPixel Thanks!

[@HenkkaMJ]

@@TeraPixel Wished that this part of the song lasted longer.
