An ongoing R&D breakdown of a purely procedural, physically-based sun surface plugin for UE 5.7. Explores custom HLSL, compute shaders, and stable matching in Niagara.

How I built a layer-based procedural explosion tool in Houdini — from velocity setup and Pyro simulation to VAT export and Six Point Lighting in Unity. A breakdown of the system architecture and the thinking behind it.

A robust Houdini to After Effects bridge for technical artists. Batch export cameras and point clouds with proper rotation order matching.

In this short video, I present a quick overview of the "Camp Fire" FX creation process using Vertex Animation techniques. I used Houdini 20.5 with Sparse Fire Simulation and upres techniques for Unreal Engine 5.4 with Lumen and Unity URP/HDRP 2022.3.4. Watch as I showcase key steps, including geometry preparation, loop animation, shader creation, and particle system building for sparks, hot air convection, and burnout sticks. Like this post?
