Re: LK Lightning 2.5 Available & Now Free

[Leonard Koch]

Hi List!
I hope everyone got well into the new year.

Over the holidays I built a tool for writing invoices. You can check it out
at: http://www.invoicewriter.net/
I built Invoice Writer because I wanted a faster and more slick way of
writing my invoices and because I wanted to work more with ReactJS, which
it is written with.
Here is a demo video: https://vimeo.com/150535962

This is pretty OT, but with all the freelancers we have on the list here,
I'm sure there are lots of people for whom this might be useful and so I
hope you don't mind me tacking it on at the end of this thread :)

Let me know what you think! Any criticism welcome.

I hope it's useful to you.

 Hi List,


 I have a new version of LK Lightning for you today. I hope you don't
 mind my posting it here.
 The headlining feature for version 2.5 is *Stages* which allows you to
 create much more complicated behaviours by assigning different sets of
 controllers to particles based on which stage they are in.With these stages
 also comes a new category of compounds. *Triggers* that allow you to
 move particles between them.You can assign a new stage to strands that have
 been split off as well and thus give them a different set of rules. This is
 something that was requested many times by 2.0 users and is indeed super
 useful.Additionally there are a bunch of other useful tools for particle
 effects in here that stem from an awesome job I got to do at Digital Golem:
 http://www.digitalgolem.com/portfolio/detroit-electric-sp01/

 *LK Lightning is also free for everyone now.*
 With Softimage going EOL I just don't feel good charging people for an
 extension to a software that has been sentenced to death.Freelancers and
 companies who've approached me wanting to buy LKL in the past couple of
 months have already received it free of charge and with the new version I'm
 making it available to everyone.
 I hope that the community can put 2.5 to good use and hope to still see
 many awesome projects made with it and Softimage.

 @Phil
 Yes there is full backwards compatibility.
 Just make sure that if you want to use stages, that you use the 2.5
 core and the 2.5 emitters.
