Stands out for its fully procedural approach, where explosions respond to scene changes and stay adjustable through parameters rather than being baked in.
Explosion Generator, developed by Jonathan Wübbe, creates explosive effects inside Blender. The explosions are fully procedural, so they adapt and respond dynamically to changes in your scene. Every aspect is customizable through parameters, from the intensity of the blast to the dispersion of debris.
You can adjust the speed and duration of each explosion, whether you need a quick burst or a slower, drawn-out effect. A real-time workflow with Blender's Eevee engine gives instant previews as you make adjustments, and curve objects let you control the shape and trajectory of the explosion.
The generator is built on a preset system created by Bardley Animations, made available for free. It supports Blender versions 3.0 through 5.0 and works with the Blender-Internal, Cycles, and Eevee render engines. Documentation is included, and the generator is distributed under a GPL license. A demo video is also available on the developer's page.
Explosion Generator is best for blender artists creating procedural explosive effects who want parameter-based control over intensity, debris, speed, and duration.
Explosion Generator is completely free to download and use.
Explosion Generator supports Blender versions 3.0 through 5.0, so it covers a wide span of releases including recent builds. It works with the Blender-Internal, Cycles, and Eevee render engines, and the real-time preview workflow is tied to Eevee for instant feedback as you adjust parameters. The explosions are fully procedural, adapting to changes in your scene. For confirmation on your exact build, check the developer's page before installing.
Explosion Generator lists Blender-Internal, Cycles, and Eevee among its supported render engines. The real-time workflow relies on Eevee, giving instant previews so you can watch explosions update as you change settings. Because the explosions are fully procedural, they adapt and respond dynamically to changes in your scene, and every aspect stays customizable through parameters. For more detail on setup and engine use, check the developer's page.
Explosion Generator is built on a preset system created by Bardley Animations, and some users found their explosions weren't showing. The developer notes that installing that addon, provided within the product, can fix the issue. Credits for the preset system go to Bardley Animations, whose work was made free for everyone. If you run into missing explosions, installing the included preset addon is the suggested step, and further guidance is available on the developer's page.
Explosion Generator is listed as free in this catalog, and the generator itself is distributed under a GPL license. It's built on a preset system from Bardley Animations that was made freely available for everyone. The developer also notes the generator is protected by royalty-free licensing terms, and that selling or distributing the files carries legal consequences. For current licensing and pricing details, check the developer's page before use.
