Explosion in space

[DeonOosthuizen]

Hi All

I've been asked to make explosions that take place in space and would like to know how to approach dis type of explosion / simulation,

The current results I get feels more like ink drops in water than an explosion in a vacume.

Has anyone done dis or point me in a direction?

My setup is basic and uses particles as a source of fuel.

Hello,

I guess that you just need to create an explosion in zero G, so you might want to set gravity to 0.0 for a start.

Hi thanks

I did set gravity to zero. But it feels as if you loose detail when you take gravity away.

I also found simulations results to be very differently between a windows machine and a Linux OS,
our IT thinks it's the way we compiled our Linux.

the reference they gave me to follow was of old WW2 flack explosions that they want in space
