Cascade VFX Tutorial - Lesson 7: Fundamentals of GPU Particles in Cascade

By Tim Elek

In Lesson 07 of the VFX Building Blocks tutorial series, I will go over the fundamentals of GPU particles in Cascade. GPU particles are a very powerful tool in our VFX toolbox and provide a host of features unavailable to CPU particles.

When combined together, GPU and CPU particles really shine. The goal of this tutorial is to help find any possible pitfalls and explain when it is appropriate to use GPU particles instead of CPU particles.
