Hi again!
I've made another animation, similiar to the one I first posted,
using the colored spheres.
In this case, the spheres are made of media and have fading
light-sources
attached. In this manner, I achieve a nice glow, much like sparks.
As an additional effect, a particle, when hitting a surface, drops a
tiny
sphere, with same color and light-source, though not as strong. This
does not affect the particle itself, though I am considering implemented
a macro that could take care of that.
You'll notice the moment in which the scenery gets pretty bright. This
is due to the rebounces that take place very often when the particles
finally "dribble" to their lying position: they leave a trail of glowing
particles,
which add up very much...
Hope you enjoy it. I'm currently working on some other animations as
well,
which will also show the disadvantage of the system (since it does not
use
I/O, it has some drawbacks).
Am always happy with critics and comments (or even compliments...)!
Tim

Perhaps the brightness of the of the sphere left behind when the particle
bounces could be dependent upon the speed of impact or energy absorbed

That's a good idea... I'll try, it a soon as I get some other stuff working
properly.

I think it would look more spectacular if you reduced gravity :)
or how about a spray?

Verry cool, it looks like fireworks that don't burn out!

That would make it look like slow-motion, I guess, I could also just
trace more frames and thus make the animation longer...

That would be similiar to the first animation I posted some days ago.
There we actually have colored blob-spheres, which bounce around,
though leaving no trail.
