Using xpBlend, you can blend the particle properties of radius, mass, color, scale and rotation with adjacent particles from the same or different emitters.

General tab

xpBlend General tab menu.

Enabled

Check this box to enable the xpBlend modifier.

Mode

Independent is the default setting.

Alternatively, you can change this to Action-Controlled.

Independent Mode

In this mode, particles will be affected if they come into the field of effect of the modifier.

Action-Controlled Mode

When in the Action-Controlled Mode setting, the modifier will only act on a particle when told to do so by an action.

Distance

A particle’s properties will only be blended with its neighbor’s if the particles are within this Distance value.

Higher Distance settings will result in greater blending and lower settings will mean there is less blending.
