PlasmaGen byexope.

Particle VFX generatorWindows 10 / 11

Power of particle generation.

Build fire, water, smoke and magic effects from 3D emitter shapes, sliders and palettes. Then send the exact same effect to Unity & Blender.

From an empty scene to fire.

Details.

16+ render styles

Neon glow, toon cel shading, sakuga, comic halftone, watercolor, hologram, pixel art, voxel, low poly, 1-bit and more. A style changes how every particle is drawn, and the Unity and Blender exports carry it along.

Mesh FX

Geometry that builds and changes shape over its lifetime: splash crowns, shockwave rings, sword slashes, tornadoes, a jet engine with fire inside. Masks, dissolve edges and scrolling noise textures included.

Vertex editing

Grab the vertices of an emitter shape, a mesh FX or a 3D model and pull them with MOVE or MAGNET, mirrored on X if you like. The particles follow the new shape right away.

GPU smoke and fire

A real 3D fluid grid with buoyancy, cooling, vorticity and turbulence, raymarched with light. Drag any shape onto a smoke layer and it becomes an obstacle the smoke flows around.

Clips and sequences

One effect, several animations: SPAWN → IDLE ×2 → PICKUP. Each clip keeps its own layer settings, and TRIGGER jumps between clips the way your game will.

Texture Lab

36+ seamless noise maps: clouds, fire, caustics, lightning, marble, hex grids and more. Tune scale, octaves, warp and contrast with a 2 × 2 preview that shows the seams are gone.

Export

A Unity prefab, baked 1:1 or as a native Particle System for Built-in and URP. A self-contained Blender script.
