Artist-friendly Particle System Tools
Particle systems can be created and modified natively in many 3D modeling and rendering packages including Cinema 4D, Lightwave, Houdini, Maya, XSI, 3D Studio Max and Blender. These editing programs allow artists to have instant feedback on how a particle system will look with properties and constraints that they specify. There is also plug-in software available that provides enhanced particle effects.
