This is a render of my Particle Animation from last year in Lightwave. For the record, Lightwave still sucks. At least it does on the Macs at school... (The gremlin I have recently named Jeffy that lives in the lab likes to crash it every so often, especially if you open the graph editor) SO! To lessen render time I decided not to render a gazillion tiny particles to make the river, I decided to render about fifty GIANT particles and made a huge amorphous gelatinous caterpillar otherwise known as a stream.
Here is the super gushy compressed animation for you all to see! [link]
Ah. I was kinda hoping that you had used Blender. I got that program a while back now, and I've decided that the tutorials for it are too long and boring to even bother with. Perhaps I might get somebody else to tell me how to use the darn thing.
