Recommended Posts

Hi guys!

 

So im working on this lightning effect and have a pretty basic setup with points projected on a wall and lines with some noise. Ive added a polywire and now i want to create some taper or thiner geo at the ends of the lightning but cant really figure out a good way of doing this.

 

Can anyone give me some tips on how to achive this? would be much appreciated, ive attached the project file if anyone wants to take a look!

cheers

Nice setup!!

I am beginner in Houdini so i am very curious about adding control in lighting.

1. How to stick lighting rays on sphere side?

2. How to emit rays with variation on each emit? (just like lighting)

3. How to control visibility for few frames just like lightning?

 

Thanks
