Hello,
I have a Maya background and I wanted to ask what are my options for applying a volume shape to any Force POP and also an attenuation to that force.

Thank you in advance.

Ok i used groups for volume which is actually very neat cause you can use what ever geometry you want but i haven't figured out how i could have some attenuation, with out messing around with the particle masses

Yo dude. If you create your forces using VOPs, its very easy to use the distance between the center of your force to the particle to do attenuation.

Here's an example of a directional, repelling, and vortex force with simple linear attenuation.

Although this is more complicated to setup than the Maya forces, you'll quickly find that you can not only recreate the Maya tools, but also quickly exceed what they are capable of.
