These videos are brilliant. Very clearly narrated, and easy to understand.

I came to a point in my level, where i needed to add some smoke to chimney stacks of a group of medieval buildings in a scene i was making, and didnt know at all how to make particles.

I followed these videos and within 20minutes was creating realistic smoke trails from the rooflines!!

Thankyou very much

I appreciated very much your 7 tutorials for Lesson 1. I appreciated also your way of speaking, as I understood near all you said though I am French... A small problem: when you show parameters tables, they are quite blurred so that I can't read all the numbers... Thank you very much.

This was an awesome experience. Perfect for a newbie! Although there is a bug in the current release of Unity so the tree painting doesn't work. And I couldn't get the shader to work properly on the particles. Maybe that's another bug? But overall an excellent experience.
