The niagara emitter

  • This is a Niagara system that has two emitters, together giving the desired effect.

  • One of the emitters displays the bottom toon-styled smoke.

  • The other emitter is the main one, which shows the tornado rings moving.

THE WATER TORNADO

  • This effect was made in the Niagara system in unreal engine 5.

  • The effect gives off a stylized, toon look.

  • The shape of the tornado can be altered in Niagara with user-exposed parameters.

The meshes and textures

  • One of the meshes used is the thick ring meanwhile the other is the sphere.

  • The textures here are noise textures that are made in photoshop and then imported into unreal.

The materials

  • The materials play a very important role in this effect.

  • The main material is from the blue tornado applied to the rings in the Niagara system.

  • The other material is for the smoke (water splash) effect that is at the bottom of the system.
