Atomic Explosion Script

[WingedOne]

Here's the script demonstrating how I made that explosion in "The Last Day" image. What really helped the realism of it though was in the original image, I had used two different glow materials, one with an orange glow, the other with a darker red glow. I kept it to one glow material here, however for the benefit of the demo users.

I'd recommend running this script with "Show Actions" turned to "On".

Thank you so Much :), I ran into Z to go see and play :). I hate to be a bother after all your work, but I received the following error :( any suggestions? http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/zbc_uploads/user_image-1015473823nod.jpg

Hi Smiles,

It looks like when you played it, ZBrush missed the command to switch to the Ring3D tool. Try running it again -- it will probably be fine.

I've just tested the script, with no trouble.

Sometimes, ZBrush hiccups a little when replaying a recording. :)

[WingedOne]

Maybe try exiting ZBrush entirely and restarting the script from scratch. That's the only thing I can think of.

This could happen by eating too many beans.

Great script! and fun to watch.

Thanks WingedOne!

I have a funny feeling it is my computer, maybe a memory thing. Im going to knock around my puter and we shall see what happens :) Thanks so much :)
