Particle nebula in Houdini & Unreal Engine 5
I created a nebula of particles in Houdini FX and uploaded it to Unreal Engine 5 in Niagara particle system, then a bit of coloring & compositing in Davinci Resolve
Three different nebula created in Houdini FX and uploaded to UE5 🌌
Nebula 1
Nebula 2
Nebula 3
When creating a nebula, it is important to loop the particles simulation so that when they are transferred to Niagara, they continuously appear and disappear.
We save the resulting result in Houdini Labs Niagara ROP as a json file, which stores all the necessary attributes of the particles and then upload the json file to niagara.
Next, we put the final touches in Niagara
