Particle system in GPU with multitexture

This Openframeworks addon allows to create a partice system managed entirely in the GPU It is forked from the work done by Neil Mendoza at https://github.com/neilmendoza/ofxGpuParticles

Features:

• Different parameters for each particle individually: size, color, texture, etc.
• Velocity can affect the size / width / color of particles by parameter
• It is possible to use multitexture for the particles, so, each particle can have its own texture
• Possibility to restrict how long a particle can go from its starting point
• The particles can be drawn as shapes coming from the starting point
• The color of the particles can be set up by an static / dynamic image
• Optical Flow (GPU). By using ofxMioFlowGLSL (https://github.com/princemio/ofxMIOFlowGLSL).

Coming soon:

• Vector Field
• Emitters

Dependencies:

• ofxGui
• ofxMioFlowGLSL (https://github.com/princemio/ofxMIOFlowGLSL). Coming soon for the optical flow in the GPU.

Developed with OF 0.8.4 and windows 7 64 bits. Exaple includes project for Visual Studio 2012
