GLSL - Moving particles (Touchdesigner tutorial)

In this tutorial, we are going to explore different possibilities to store positions and velocities in a GLSL TOP to make a little particle system.
Also, we're going to touch upon uniform variables and how to use them as parameters for our particle system.
Some vector math included, hope my explanations make sense :)
Enjoy!

YOU ARE AMAZING PLEASE MAKE MORE TD GLSL TUTORIALS :))))

[@eeianbang1900]

Bro your tutorial helps me a lot,thank you!

[@toddphamm]

Please make more tutorials!!

Amazing, that is petty clear. thx. Can we overide all these moves with attractors? make a tornado (like old school particles before glsl)? lol

[@unveil7762]

Thaz nice, i would like to get the direction from a rg texture, than i guess we can move the particle according to an input texture, like ramp or a banana 🍌, or an sdf, this will be my task for tonight. Thank you for you tutorial, i always enjoy them.

Hi, thank you for the tutorials, they are great :) I'm just getting started with Touchdesigner, and I when trying this, I can't hook my Geo COMP to anything. Do u know why this is happening and how to solve it? Thanks again!

[@cylindrical4601]

Hello, this tutorial is helpful for me to understanding glsl. But is that anyway to hold the instance not expanding bigger? Just expand until some point so we didnt have to click reset anytime we want to preview it. Hope you have a time to reply my question. Thank you.

hey noones, I love your tutorials alot. But if I could nitpick a bit; the music in the background is slightly distracting, I don't know if it's too loud or just the fact that it's there at all.
Other than that thank you for the content! and have a nice day :)

[@RusticRaver]

I think the music ads to the mystery and comic sense.

[@boniffacy2046]

Can you share music used in your video? Awesome choice of sound :).

[@worldboy89]

Is there a way to cause particles to move in the opposite direction once they reach a certain x / y value? I do not want the system to expand infinitely

Hi Noones, I'm running into an issue. When I try to rename the variable to pos, it gives me an error "use of undeclared identifier "pos". But I'm writing the exact same code as you have. Please help I'm new to coding and I can't find any info online. Thank you (:

[@innominepatriz1843]

could you find it out? im running into the same problem :/
