These were made during the H12 Beta program and several people have commented on how useful they were and would like continued access to them, so we've posted them here for everyone to have a look at. Enjoy!

*NOTE* Things have changed a bit since these videos were made by Mario Marengo but they are still an excellent source of information on the inner workings of Pyro FX 2.

The following videos take you through the inner workings of the new Pyro FX 2 shader:

1. Intro
2. Fields
3. AA Ramp
4. Unified Noise
5. Dual Rest
6. Pyro Noise
7. Pyro Color Correct
8. Black Body
9. Color Model
10. cVolume
11. Pyro FX Shader

unified noise - absolutely brilliant! many thanks for this.

on another note - i'm afraid to say that the sesi marketing dept. is underselling this release! this was again mentioned on the 3d-pro mailing list :-/

Woah! I just found these while trolling the forums. Explains a lot!

How come these aren't part of the Tutorials section? (Or, are they?)
