Quick EmberGen Tutorial: Creating Looping Simulations

In this quick EmberGen tutorial you’ll learn how to properly loop simulations and prevent common issues you may face. You can follow along by using the default scene in EmberGen. 0:00 Intro 0:51 Looping the Timeline 1:29 Repeating Simulation With Automatic Loop 1:51 Looping your Simulation 3:49 Common Issues 4:22 Testing your Loop 5:30 Addional Looping Information Useful hotkeys & tips in this tutorial: *“Spacebar“ to pause simulation *“R“ to reset simulation *“CTRL R“ Force reset simulation outside of the looping bounds, this is imperative! *To properly loop the simulation, go to the simulation node -: Time Control tab and then set looping mode to “Loop Simulation“. Keep Dynamic Blend selected and Quintic is generally the best blend curve to use, but experiment as needed. *Is your loop jumping on the last frame? Ensure that you aren’t using Upscaling, Turbulence, Vorticles, GPU particles, or Shape Particl
