<DIV>Hey guys,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I'm trying to put together a small movie for a game that i'm working on. I've spent a lot of time studying the special effects used on many different games and how they can be achieved with other software suits. I know that there are many different effect plugins available through the python scripts, but i think it would be an excellent idea to integrate some good special effects into the hard coded blender program. Some good effects i would like to see are perhaps automated fibers generator for things like hair, grass, and clothing, perhaps some special particle effects generators like snow, fire, and other common particle systems, and perhaps a special effects generator that does certain camera effects like Depth of Field, blurring, and animated camera pans. I know how to do some of these things in blender already, but having these features integrated would make it much easier on people who want to model, texture, and animate by themselves. Thanks for listening guys!</DIV>
