Learn how to create a flowfield particle look in TouchDesigner—without using particles! This beginner-friendly tutorial covers feedback basics and noise-driven motion to achieve an organic, dynamic look. No external assets needed—just TouchDesigner! Also thanks to @elekktronaut for the overlay tox
TouchDesigner Beginner Tutorial: Feedback Flowfield 'Fake' Particle Look
https://youtu.be/LogiJdn2D1c https://youtu.be/LogiJdn2D1c I see developers and tutorial makers of all skill levels make the mistake of treating Constant CHOPs as parameters, when in fact we have Custom Parameters built into TouchDesigner and they pack a lot of punch for little effort!
Why Constant CHOPs are a BAD IDEA (when used as parameters)
