Artificial starfield

Post by J_Mac »

Hi everyone,

A search didn't show this in the forum and I've only been using MMV for a week or two - but - I needed a starfield effect with more control over the individual stars. So I came up with this artificial starfield, might be useful for someone!

Peace,

J_Mac

Welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing.

You can get even more control using much fewer nodes by employing an Iterator node.

Thanks! I am struggling with the iterator, I'm not really sure how it works. I realise it draws repeats but I couldn't make those repeats behave individually. I will check that project out and do some learning, thanks!

This short tutorial gives a simple introduction to using the iterator - different application but hopefully should help.
