SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

Here's a look at what I got up to at New Year:

fully transparent depth sorted particle system.
Shown is a single white particle system. This is duplicated 6 times with different colored lights. this shows the depth sorting, transparency and light coloring

The looks pretty sweet  What happens if you have a dimmer light pointing to the side, does it merge the colours too?

Is this the sort of thing you mean? single white system pouting into the scene. there is a bright white light where it is sources and it is surrounded by colored lights. the system is set to 'flow' when it hits the floor

Pretty pretty, looks gorgeous. Very impressive 

that looks like art to.

Thanks guys, still debugging, but lots of progress showing.
Here are 2 systems being tested. one steam from a pipe and the other is gas from a vent. they both use the same image which was quickly drawn by me.

You get a side shot showing the setup

and then a front shot that shows the 3d nature of the steam and the flow of the gas

Testing in situ with some of the features activated: lighting self lit transparent signs, objects and a single particle system
