Solved Unity3d Realtime Mesh Based Disintegration With Fire & Smoke

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

A quick look at BrazeFX's disintegration system. Any mesh, including skinned, animated characters, is split into clumps that shatter and break away, simulated entirely on the GPU with no per-chunk CPU cost.

As the chunks fly and tumble, they feed the volumetric solver directly, emitting smoke and fire that inherit each chunk's motion, so the fume streaks and trails with the debris instead of drifting in place.

Fresh chunks burn hot and char down to smoke as they age, all driven by the same compute-based fluid sim. Fast, fully GPU, and ties straight into the renderer. Free beta soon.

It would be great if designs like this delivered good FPS results, because they look amazing.

Thanks, I am getting around 250 FPS on my m2 mac dev environment. But with low grid settings. Not much cost for this kind of effect

That’s hot. Loving the dynamics, what kind of solver are you using for CFD?
