About
A rising whirlwind strike. The outer ribbon is swept up a cone that narrows from 0.36 m to 0.16 m over one and a half turns, a thinner ribbon follows inside it, a lathed shaft runs up the axis and a torus marks the base. Bounding size 0.82 by 1.00 by 0.78 m, metres, +Y up, +Z forward. Origin: ground contact at y=0. The effect emits from the ground plane and its lowest geometry sinks 0.019 m under that plane, so the mesh is settled onto y=0 and the emission plane sits 0.019 m up. 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.
