화산 폭발을 VFX로 만들기

A volcano is a crater within the earth's crust that spews lava and smoke due to internal pressure from magma and dissolved gasses. Games often include volcanoes within challenging gameplay areas, such as locations where players must balance the danger of lava and molten rock hazards with the reward of valuable resources, boss battle arenas, or environments that dynamically change as the volcano cyclically erupts.

Using the Volcano Island - Start .rbxl file as a starting place and Volcano Island - Complete as a reference, this tutorial shows you how to transform the environment into a volcanic eruption with custom lighting and VFX objects that represent real-world physical behavior, including guidance on:

• Breaking down referential material into individual components with distinct visual and behavioral characteristics.
• Configuring surface ripples to emulate hot fluid rising to the surface and disrupting the surface of the caldera.
• Configuring embers to emulate pieces of molten rock quickly cooling as they rise into the atmosphere.
• Configuring lava that splashes and flows from the caldera to emulate various types of lava viscosity states.
• Configuring a smoke plume to emulate harsh impurities rising into the sky that catch players' attention.

To create credible volcanoes, it's important to reference real-world volcanic eruptions in the design process because it allows you to break down the subject matter into individual components with distinct visual and behavioral characteristics. For example, the sample Volcano Island - Complete game references the volcanic eruption in Iceland to inform all texture and VFX design decisions relating to the caldera and its surrounding terrain.

It's useful to break down a volcano that's erupting into individual components so that you can plan how to utilize different VFX objects to mimic their real-world counterparts. To demonstrate, this tutorial breaks the sample volcano into five unique components:

• Surface Ripples – The small waves of lava on the surface of the caldera.
• Embers – The small, light pieces of molten rock that rise to the sky from the caldera.
• Lava Splashes – The thin molten rock that bursts out from the caldera due to internal pressure within the volcano.
• Lava Flow – The viscous molten rock that oozes away from the caldera.
• Smoke Plume – The warm, billowing gas that rises into the sky from the caldera.

The following sections provide an in-depth analysis of the different design decisions and techniques you can use to recreate each of these components. As you review these decisions and experiment with various lighting, ParticleEmitter, and Beam properties, you will learn how to utilize lighting and VFX to solve the unique environmental requirements for your own games.

조명 구성

To make an environmental element a point of interest within your game, it's important to increase its contrast against the overall environment so that it stands out as something that players should explore. For example, to draw players into the caldera, you can configure your lighting sources so that the volcano's lava appears to glow as the only light source within an otherwise dark environment.

Studio provides two high-level types of lighting sources you can use for this technique:

• Global lighting - Produces lighting for the entire outdoor environment.
• Local lighting - Produces lighting around where you place them within your game.

This section of the tutorial teaches you how to utilize both types of lighting sources to make your volcanic eruption the most significant point of interest within your scene, as well as create a dramatic effect for your environmental storytelling. To illustrate, review how the same final volcano without custom lighting feels like an unobtrusive hazard in an otherwise cheerful environment while the volcano with custom lighting feels like a dangerous presence in a dark, melancholic environment.

지역 조명

Local lighting is the luminescence from local light sources in your game, such as SpotLight, SurfaceLight, and PointLight objects. Local lighting is important to add to your volcano because while you can apply brightness to your ParticleEmitter and Beam textures, they cannot fill the canyon with enough light alone to realistically simulate how the caldera and its flowing lava would illuminate the environment in the real world.

It's helpful to configure your local lighting before your global lighting for this tutorial because without the local light sources, you cannot see the 3D space to configure your VFX objects. However, common workflows require you to iterate on both local and global lighting concurrently to see the effects of your changes on VFX objects, so it's important to be flexible to design requirements of your own games.

To recreate the local lighting for the volcano in the sample Volcano Island - Complete place file:

1. In the Explorer window, create a Folder in the Workspace to contain all local light source objects, then rename the folder LocalLighting.

2. Insert three block parts into the LocalLighting folder, then rename them LightCaldera, LightMagma, and LightOutflow, respectively.

3. Move the parts to a position where they can light the entirety of the volcano.

   1. Move LightCaldera to the center of the space between the caldera and the cliff.
   2. Move LightMagma to the center of the crevice between the caldera and the magma outflow.
   3. Move LightOutflow to slightly above where the outflow forks into two streams.

   

4. Insert a Pointlight into each part.

   

5. Select the PointLight child of LightCaldera, then in the Properties window,

   1. Set Brightness to 15 to make the light source much brighter.
   2. Set Color to 255, 85, 0 to tint the light to a dark orange hue.
   3. Set Range to 60 to illuminate the entire caldera area.

Global lighting is the luminescence from either the sun or moon in a game. By adjusting a couple of key default properties in the Lighting service and its child post-processing effects objects, you can dramatically change how global light appears to players, as well as how it interacts with any other object you place in the game, including ParticleEmitter and Beam textures.

For example, to ensure that the Beam textures that produce a flowing lava effect later in the tutorial are able to glow, you must configure BloomEffect properties to exaggerate the lighting like a camera viewing a bright light. Similarly, to simulate more realistic colors at night, you must also adjust the effect's properties to desaturate the overall environment.

To recreate the global lighting in the sample Volcano Island - Complete place file:

1. In the Explorer window, select the Lighting service, then in the Properties window,

   1. Set Ambient to 133, 152, 176 to set a light gray hue over the entire outdoor environment.
   2. Set Brightness to 2 to make the global light source slightly dimmer.

Now that your local and global lighting configuration is complete, it's time to configure all of the VFX objects relating to the actual volcano and its surrounding terrain. As you follow these instructions that exactly recreate the final environment within the sample Volcano Island .rbxl file, observe how each step works together to add character, movement, and illuminance to the environment.

Surface ripples are the small lava waves that flow across the surface of the caldera as a result of internal magma and pressurized gasses moving upward from beneath the earth's crust. This visual phenomenon conveys the real-world physical process of convection, or the movement within a fluid when hotter fluid rises to the surface, and it adds to the realism of your scene.

Surface ripples provide valuable insight for players into the state of the volcanic eruption. For example, if magma and gas are moving upward with enough force to disrupt the state of the lava on top of the caldera and cause it to churn, players can deduce that the volcano is actively erupting with boiling magma, so they should exercise caution around this gameplay area.

To demonstrate this process, the sample uses a ParticleEmitter object slightly below the base of the caldera to emit flat, bright particles that slowly expand and contract on top of a dark backdrop. This allows the particles to emulate the behavior of lava smoothly and continuously churning in a way that's similar to the realistic way elements move in nature.

To recreate the surface ripples on top of the caldera in the sample Volcano Island - Complete place file:

1. In the Explorer window, create a Folder in the Workspace to contain all caldera objects, then rename the folder Caldera.

      4. Set Size to a number sequence in which particles increase in size toward the middle of their lifetime before returning to their original size with a small window of variation.

         1. Click the Size property, then click the ⋯ button. A number sequence pop-up displays. By default, the graph is a straight line and the image remains the same size from left to right.

         

         Each square at the start and end of the number sequence is a keypoint that determines the size value of the property at that point of the texture from left to right.

         1. Set the following time and value properties throughout the number sequence:

         • Time = 0, Value = 4.81, Envelope = 0.438

Embers are the small, light pieces of molten rock that burst out of the caldera, rapidly expelling heat as they rise into the atmosphere. Similar to surface ripples, embers reveal that internal pressure below the earth's crust is pressing upwards, causing hot elements to break the lava's surface tension to release pressure.

The sample emulates this process by using a ParticleEmitter object to emit particles with motion blur that's baked into the texture. As the particles rise and reach the end of their lifetime, the emitter squashes the particles into a 1:1 ratio to reform the particles into circles. This technique allows the particles to seem as though they are rapidly moving as they exit the caldera, then slow down as they dissipate into the sky.

In addition, as particles rise, they change their color, opacity, and size to reflect their changing temperature. For example, they begin their lifetime as large, brown particles, but quickly transform into small orange, then maroon particles. This strategy also has the benefit of subtly reflecting the lighting throughout the canyon, increasing a player's immersion within the environment.

Lava splashes are bursts of thin molten rock that erupt upward from the volcano as a result of internal magma and pressurized gasses applying enough force to break the surface tension of the lava on top of the caldera. This core component of a volcano is one of the most common signs in determining that a volcano is no longer dormant and is actively erupting.

The sample represents this process with two ParticleEmitter objects that utilize flipbooks to animate each particle's texture over their lifetime. The first particle emitter emits particles that look like dense, high-viscosity splashes that are heavy and thick, causing them to rise and fall slowly back down into the volcano. Conversely, the second particle emitter emits particles that look like webby, low-viscosity splashes that are light and thin, causing them to rise and fall quickly.

Each particle emitter animates their texture over 64 frames to emulate smooth, lifelike physical behavior. While you could use only one particle emitter, the repetition of the animation would become apparent and break the immersion for your players because they would see the exact same animation every time. However, when two particles animate flipbooks with slightly different custom properties, it is much more difficult to spot the repetition.

The sample also provides a ParticleEmitter object that emits particles that look like aerated splashes to represent even lighter webby splashes. This technique fills the space with dynamic movement and further hides the repetition of the flipbook animations. As an extra bonus, if your game also includes the waterfall from Creating Waterfalls, you're able to reuse the same texture twice for different gameplay areas, saving you memory and improving performance on low-end devices.

A lava flow is a mass of lava that erupts and oozes away from the caldera and across the earth's surface during a volcanic eruption. As the lava cools due to its exposure to air, it solidifies and transforms into solid rock, creating new land mass.

To simulate this process, the sample layers multiple Beam objects on top of each other with seamless textures and property configurations that emulate the behavioral characteristics of lava cooling as it travels further away from the caldera:

• The bottom layer renders a flat color that transforms from a warm to a cool color to communicate that the lava is beginning to drop in temperature, such as bright red to a dark maroon.
• The middle layer renders a black texture that looks like dark crust with holes that reveal the glowing lava underneath.
• The top layer renders the same texture as the middle layer at a slower rate, flipped attachments, and opposite property configurations. This ensures that the textures never have the opportunity to fully line up with each other while rendering in the same direction, which would allow players to easily detect the unrealistic texture repetition.

Layering three Beam objects creates an illusion of parallax to make the lava seem like it has a sense of depth and volume where the lava is flowing at different rates, even though they are only three 2D images. This lets players know that there is a sense of turbulence within the canyon, both on and below the lava's surface.

To recreate the flowing magma from the caldera in the sample Volcano Island - Complete place file:

      • Time = 0, Value = 1
      • Time = 0.22, Value = 0
      • Time = 0.85, Value = 0
      • Time = 1, Value = 1

      

      1. Set ZOffset to 1 to offset the texture to be slightly away from the caldera.

10. Duplicate Crust1, rename it Crust2, then in the Properties window,

    1. Set Attachment0 to the attachment at the fork in the crevice.
    2. Set Attachment1 to the attachment at the edge of the caldera.
    3. Set Width0 to 25 to widen the texture from the axis that it starts to render.
    4. Set Width1 to 35 to widen the texture as it meets the fork in the crevice.
    5. Set TextureSpeed to -0.008 to significantly slow down the flow of the texture.
    6. Set TextureLength to 2 to slightly unstretch the texture's length.
    7. Set CurveSize0 to -5 to curve the texture away from the crevice's floor.
    8. Set CurveSize1 to 50 to curve the texture into the fork in the crevice.
    9. Set ZOffset to 2 to offset the texture from the other crust.

    동일한 프로세스를 사용하여 틈새의 포크 주위에 더 많은 빔을 만들어 마그마를 분기시킵니다. 텍스처를 느리게 하고 온도가 낮아짐에 따라 색상이 어두워지는 마그마를 시뮬레이션하도록 속성을 조정해야 합니다.

연기 기둥

칼데라에서 나오는 연기 기둥은 따뜻한 압력 가스, 증기 및 화산재를 대기로 방출합니다. 이 화산 배출물의 혼합물은 실제 세계에서 몇 마일 떨어진 곳에서도 볼 수 있으므로 화산 디자인은 종종 3D 공간에서 중요한 관심 지점이 되도록 큰 연기 기둥을 포함합니다.

폭발적인 분출 직후에 볼 수 있는 두꺼운 화산재 연기를 방출하는 대신, 샘플은 ParticleEmitter 객체를 사용하여 위로 상승하면서 색상이 변하는 얇은 연기 증기처럼 보이는 입자를 방출합니다. 이 기술은 두 가지 목표를 달성합니다:

• 배경 분화구의 실루엣을 분산시켜 화산 분출 주변에 더 많은 시각적 흥미를 만듭니다.
• 연기가 환경의 빛을 받아들이는 것처럼 보이면서도 연기가 공기 중의 불순물을 태우는 것처럼 어두운 존재감을 발산하게 합니다. 마치 밤하늘처럼 회색으로 변하기 전에 말이죠.

샘플 화산 섬 - 완전 장소 파일에서 칼데라의 연기 기둥을 재현하려면:

1. 칼데라 폴더에 블록 파트를 삽입한 후 이름을 SmokePlume으로 변경합니다.

2. SmokePlume을 칼데라 아래에 배치한 후 칼데라의 표면 면적에 맞게 크기를 조정합니다.

   

3. SmokePlume에 ParticleEmitter를 삽입한 후 발사기를 Smoke로 이름을 변경합니다.

4. Smoke를 선택한 후 속성 창에서,

   1. Texture를 rbxassetid://16830673704로 설정하여 두꺼운 연기처럼 보이는 입자를 렌더링합니다.
   2. Color를 칼데라에서 하늘로 환경의 조명을 시뮬레이션하는 색상 시퀀스로 설정합니다. 검은색에서 시작하여 연한 복숭아색으로 변한 후 회색으로 변합니다.
