Dynamic Paint

Earlier today MiikaH releasaed a beta version of what is now known as dynamic paint (formally mesh paint), this system basiclly allows you to bake object/particle/smoke/etc interactions to a texture. like a the wetness a fluid leaves behind after flowing over an object.

Now this is system is extreamly nice, with various effects liek drips and erasing. The workflow of using it is very nicely done, really same workflow as fluid, designate a canvas, designate a painter set output paths and away you go :) , my only gripe is it controls the UI when baking like smoke, I would like it to be like fluid so you can playback and still see where its up to.

So moving on, i have been following this for a while and had a real nice play with it today and the results are below :)
