I'm having trouble adjusting the weight painting on a complex piece of geometry. The capturelayerpaintbrush does not get the entire geometry selection, there are some small polygons behind others I cannot seem to get painted. The polys in front get painted butt he ones behind don't, and crash through the ones in front when I rotate the parented null. I have set the Brush Depth to 10 and the Opacity to 1. Any idea how I can address this?

Thanks Dennis, I have accessed that data but it does not tie into the Geometry name, so that data does not help unfortunately.

Yes, it does not

I have a model with several shaders I am having to rebuild for my render engine (Redshift), which does not use Principled Shaders. The model imports with several Principled shaders. These shaders import with the correct texture file. I need to rebuild shaders to match these Principled shaders. The work is easy enough, but I cannot find a way to determine which specific Principled Shaders are assigned to my individual geos. The file is a GLTF, and I have a comprehensive node tree with all geos, but the Material tab on each geo is empty. Is there a list or breakdown I can create to see what Principled Shader is supposed to be applied to each individual geo? Brad Schreiber

Hello, I have a rigged character in H 18 and my Groom is not following the characters animation. This only occurs once I have placed a guidegroom modifier in the Groom node. If I bypass the guidegroom the animation works and the hair deforms properly. Of course, without the guidegroom the hair simply stands up and looks incorrect. I have attached a sample file highlighting the problem. How can I fix this? Test_Rig_hair_NoShaders.hiplc

Trying to do an RBD sim but I get a ton of flicker on the smashed part after it has settled. I cannot seem to apply RBD Freeze as, despite selecting the RBD object, it says I have not selected an RBD Object. This is quite frustrating. Any help or guidance as to what I am doing wrong would be appreciated. Sample HIP file attached. RBD Test.hiplc

Thanks Noobini- that did the trick!

I have a POP kill attached to my Vellum Grains sim but the particles just pass right through it without dying. How can I get them to delete after they pass into the bounding box?

Thanks so much man!

I am looking for the workflow to attache a moving vehicle to a Ground Plane. I remember a tutorial where you could add a bit of code in the Translate value, but cannot find it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you, but this does not work with my version of MOPs.

I have a tank model and would like to animate the treads. What is the best way to achieve this? I'm no VEX master by any stretch. Looking for a workable approach to this. Thank you.

Have built a decent rig for a Bat Model but cannot figure out how to adjust the capture weights once the Mesh is captured onto the Bone Hierarchy. Whenever I select the “Edit Capture Weights” tool it keeps saying I have no selected Captured Geometry, but I do have my mesh selected. I just want to adjust the Weights of my rig to get a better animation result. Help Greatly Appreciated! Bat-1.hiplc

Thank you- that is the solution!
