In the series of articles about the Wind Bending you'll see three videos in different ways explaining this effect. In the first video you'll see a schematic explanation of the Wind Bending technology from a man who was involved in its development. In the video you can get a basic understanding on how the engine affects the geometry and what settings of the effect in which way do you need to use.
In the second article of the series with next two videos you will see the usage of Wind Bending in specific examples.
As always, you can post comments and questions on our forum in the specific post.
