About
A steam release from a floor vent. Sixteen overlapping lobes of growing radius merge into one continuous twisting volume, so the column reads as a solid jet rather than as separate bubbles, over an annular vent ring and four crossed grate bars. Bounding size 0.50 by 1.04 by 0.45 m, metres, +Y up, +Z forward. Origin: ground contact at y=0. The effect emits from the ground plane, so the origin is both its emission point and its resting point. Opaque solid geometry throughout: this pack uses no alpha blending and no transmission, so the silhouette and the emissive material carry the read. Static mesh with no animation clip, no skinned rig, no collision and no navigation data.
