noise force field

The noise field generates a noise to influence particles inside the Noise Field Source. ATTENTION!: omni.particle.system.core is currently undergoing extensive (breaking) changes. Please be aware that systems built with the existing extension will need to be rebuilt in the USD Composer 2023.2 release.

Installation

To use this Node, you must enable omni.particle.system.core in the Extension Manager.

Inputs

Name

Type

Description

Default

active

bool

Is the Noise field currently active?

True

attenuation

float

Attenuation is how much the effect of the field decays from the ‘center’ to the ‘boundary’ of the Noise Field Source.

1.0

considerVelocity

bool

Consider velocity of the particle when calculating noise.

False

frequency

float

Value changes position to increase or decrease the noise sample.

1.0

magnitude

float

The amount of force to apply to the particles through the noise.

1.0

octaves

int

The amount of times the noise is sampled.
