Asset overview
Understand the setup.
Then make it your own.
Arc Discharge is a Blender Geometry Nodes asset in OmniKit’s buildings collection.
SETUP: assign Contacts for connected arcs. Flicker Connected/Free = 1 keeps arcs visible continuously; 0 removes them. | MESH INPUT: drop on a mesh, or feed mesh geometry to Geometry. Apply object scale for predictable distances. | Tesla-coil arc discharge - points crawl over the source surface throwing arcs that snap to nearby contact objects when in reach and whip freely when not, with separate distortion and flicker for each, per-arc noise decorrelation and length-based thickness.
Its exposed inputs include Density, Seed, Reach, Stub Length, Free Length, Length Random, Resolution. Review the control reference below to plan a suitable setup.
Source and setup notes
Source node name: OMNI - Arc Discharge
Collection: 22 Geometry Nodes/VFX/Electricity & Lightning
Structural inspection used Blender 5.2.0 LTS. Other releases and render engines require separate checks.
How to approach this asset
- Check the source notes for the expected mesh, curve, field, shader or World context.
- Start with a disposable scene and a suitable input. Inspect required object, material or collection inputs.
- Adjust one documented control at a time. Evaluate the result before using it in a production project.
