Dissolution - Dissolve mesh into particles with Geometry Nodes

A lightning fast Geometry Nodes based setup to create a Dissolve into particles-effect from any object.

Video demo here and here.

Simply take your mesh, apply the GeoNodes setup, tweak settings to your liking and away you go ! 

This is a Geometry Nodes setup to achieve a dissolve effect to any mesh. 

The node tree comes contracted into one control group with all settings exposed and labeled, and is the node tree inside coming with explanations. As many of the setups of similar effect, we are using points, distributed on the original mesh. We move these points by a combination of noise textures in the simulation section, then instance icospheres on those points. The point radius is controlled throughout the process, so the mesh dissolves and disappears during the preset frame range and with the set settings.

It comes with the full setup with additional examples.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Adjustable settings and features -

- The original mesh vertices follow the dissolution shape

- The noise transformation and disappearance timing is fully customizable

 - Adjustable particle stretch and rotate to the movement direction

- Adjustable scale by speed

- And many others

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The setup is only one example of using this node tree, you can utilize it for your own vision.

Happy Blending !

NOTE

-(Since it is a concept demonstration, it is kept as simple as possible.) The GeoNodes trees are kept clean for easier readability and have detailed explanations. Everything is built from the base. The point of these setups is to provide a base core of the concept, node from node, with labels and explanations.

YOU ARE highly encouraged to open the control node and dissect the tree for yourself, not only to access the logic, but for more customization.

You can embellish, refine as you wish based on the core or realize your own ideas.

-Read the text description, it has a lot of useful info !
