A look at creating microbiology cell style animations using X-Particles 2 from Mike Batchelor, who shows how to build build upon particle events and string them together into a complex micro cell style animation.

This is a project based tutorial for x-particles looking at micro cell style animations

Recently X-Particles has seen a huge new version in X-Particles 2 making it much faster in larger particle counts with a new multithreaded components including a multithreaded emitter.

Mike demonstrates how easy it is to set up complex particle animations with X-Particles 2, using the Questions and Answers feature, essentially sequentially laying out events for the particles in animation.

X-Particles 2 comes in the Standard Version for 149 euros or roughly $190, and a Pro version for 249 euros, roughly $330.
