Each plugin has its own webpage with more detailed information
as well as demo animations, downloadable demo version and demo scenes,
simply follow the links by clicking on the plugin's icon or name.
On Vimeo are many video tutorials for each plugin that show step by step
how the plugins work and what they can be used for. A complete list
of all videos tutorials can be found here.
| Current Versions | ||||
| Name | Type | Brief Description | Link to Webpage |
Compatibility |
| emFlock2 (version 2.2) updated: 03.02.2012 |
ICE Plugin |
A flocking simulator for ICE and the successor of emFlock version 1.xx. Along with the flocking ICE node comes a handful of useful compounds for controlling the particle speed and orientation as well as a set of compounds called emFly that can be used to morph point clouds into shapes. |
