Source code is provided, someone needs to compile it for H17, and the platform, Win10? I would, but i don't have visual studio at home.

nice Algorithm!, i did a quick test:

Excellent, looking forward to that! let me know of you need a tester

this would work well with your Divide Edges otl, could even combine them. BTW, I just found all your otl's. Amazing work, thanks so much for these! Do you take requests? so many cool features I've seen lately with Blender (Mesh Machine)!

@Alexey Vanzhula that's a shame that you got rid of the menu, I liked it and was getting used to it. Any idea when DM 2.0 is going to be released? thanks, z

@Alexey Vanzhula Hello, I recently bought DM a few days ago. And I have a few questions: My DM menu is very small (I work on a 4k monitor) is there a way to make it bigger? Any ETA on DM 2.0? or giving owners of DM 1.0 early access? 11 Months ago you posted this video that shows DM 1.0.1, but I cannot find the "Flow Loop" command in the DM menu nor the DM shelf, is DM 1.0.1 not the release you get from your Gumroad? I seem to be missing some commands in my DM Menu seen here: https://postimg.cc/mz5QtMmR, I see the commands in the DM shelf but how do I get them into the menu? This happens in H16.5 and H17 (Win10) Missing the following: Delete Nodes Clean History Bake History Flatten H Flatten V Bridge Std thanks, z

So I was able to use the RBDtoFBX from the Game Dev Toolset shelf to export my baked sim from Houdini into Maya. Then I was able to use this python script in Maya to automatically convert each object piece into a bone and have it auto skinned. import maya.cmds as mc def bakeToSkeleton(): #Set up selection selection = mc.ls(sl = True) mc.select(cl=True) jointList = [] locList = [] duplicateList = [] rootJoint = "rootJoint" #Create and attach Skeleton to meshes if mc.objExists("rootJoint")==False: rootJoint = "rootJoint" mc.joint(n=rootJoint, p=(0, 0, 0)) mc.select(cl=True) for selected in selection: if "|" in selected: nice_name = selected.split("|") nice_name = nice_name[1] else: nice_name = selected locName = nice_name + "_Loc" jointName = nice_name + "_joint" mc.joint(n=jointName, p=(0, 0, 0)) mc.parent(jointName, rootJoint) mc.spaceLocator(n=locName, p=(0, 0, 0)) mc.pointConstraint(selected,locName) mc.orientConstraint(selected,locName) mc.scaleConstraint(selected,locName) locList.append(locName) jointList.append(jointName) mc.select(cl=True) #Bake Animation to joints and remove constraints animStartTime = mc.playbackOptions(q=True, minTime=True) animEndTime = mc.playbackOptions(q=True, maxTime=True) currentFrame = animStartTime while(currentFrame <= animEndTime): i = 0 while(i < len(locList)): currentT = mc.getAttr(locList[i] + ".translate") currentR = mc.getAttr(locList[i] + ".rotate") currentS = mc.getAttr(locList[i] + ".scale") mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "translateX", v = currentT[0][0]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "translateY", v = currentT[0][1]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "translateZ", v = currentT[0][2]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "rotateX", v = currentR[0][0]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "rotateY", v = currentR[0][1]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "rotateZ", v = currentR[0][2]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "scaleX", v = currentS[0][0]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "scaleY", v = currentS[0][1]) mc.setKeyframe(jointList[i], at = "scaleZ", v = currentS[0][2]) i += 1 mc.currentTime(currentFrame, e = True) currentFrame += 1 #Duplicate and attach mesh to joints i = 0 while i<len(selection): if "|" in selection[i]: nice_dup_name = selection[i].split("|") nice_dup_name = nice_dup_name[1] else: nice_dup_name = selection[i] dupName = nice_dup_name + "_baked" #mc.duplicate(selection[i], n= dupName) shapes = mc.listRelatives(selection[i], s = True) tmp = mc.instance(shapes[0]) mc.duplicate(tmp, n=dupName) mc.delete(tmp) mc.parent(dupName, world = True) mc.makeIdentity(apply = True) duplicateList.append(dupName) mc.select(dupName, jointList[i]) mc.skinCluster(toSelectedBones=True) i+=1 #Collect and clean up scene for i in locList: mc.delete(i) mc.group("rootJoint", duplicateList, n="Baked Simulation Contents") mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.sz",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.sy",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.sx",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.tz",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.ty",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.tx",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.rz",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.ry",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) mc.setAttr("Baked_Simulation_Contents.rx",keyable = False,lock=True, channelBox = False) for i in selection: mc.hide(i) print i print "Baked Animation To Skeleton Conversion Done" bakeToSkeleton()

Fracture Animation Export? I think that just exports an fbx for Unreal and Unity. I wanted bones to get created for me with auto rigging.

Hello, I am wondering how i can take an object that i have fractured with glue constraints and sim'd and have Houdini automatically create a bone for each fractured object and skin weight it and bake the sim animation into the bones. I tried searching this forum and the interwebs and i'm not finding what i want. thanks!
