Wind Object

What is it about?

This page covers the Wind object in Cinema 4D's particle forces. It pushes particles in a set direction — with optional turbulence for gusty variation — driving fluttering cloth, drifting snow or leaning particle streams.

Wind deflects the particle flow. The direction in which the wind is blowing is shown in the editor by a wind wheel with a small arrow in the modifier.

By adding turbulence, effects such as wind that changes direction and strength over time can be realized.

Example

This piece of fabric fluttering in the wind benefits from the turbulence functionality of the wind object.
