Spiral Effect

Has anyone done a video tutorial on the spiral effect? I am not having the best of luck making a good spiral effect.

Define “good spiral effect.”  What look are you trying to achieve?

[Gilrock]

What kind of model are you putting it on.  Normally that effect is for a mega tree.  Just play with each parameter and watch what it does.  The parameters you need to get a certain look are dependent on the size of the model.

Have you looked in the  Shared Effects Preset   there is a few spiral effects you can down load. each one has a number next to them that will tell you how many layers it needs. Looking at how those are made you will get an idea of how to make them.

also out on the shared drive there are free effects   there is one zip file that has 32 effects
