RBD - Breaking animated constraints with distance
DeBrumaire posted a topic in General Houdini Questions
Hi ! I'm currently struggling on breaking constraints. I want my constraints to break if their length is higher than a given threshold. These constraints has to be soft constraints and I have to keep them animated (it's for my work). I tried to break them in the SOP Solver connected to the constraintNetwork, but for a reason it doesn't work at all. I've created hip file to show the problem more clearly. If you dive into the SOP Solver node you'll see that, long constraints get detected, but it doesn't affect the simulation. Break_Animated_Cst.hipnc -

Hey guys, I am working on new personal project and I would like to share some playblasts I did. I guess it's useless to say where this idea comes from This was the first iteration. I kinda liked it but I decided to move on and do some other iterations. THe splitting was a bit unnatural. After finalizing the RBD setup I started with the main fireball. Here is a playblast of it. Could be better. That's the current stage of it and I don't think I will have time to do more versions. RIght now I amrendering everything and started to work on the secondary elements. Updates soon, I hope

Hi, I'm currently working through Steven Knippings Applied Houdini Rigids 3 series and just got a bit stuck at the section where he converts hard constraints into glue constraints using a Prim wrangle inside a SOP solver. I've looked into the geo spreadsheet and it seems to do the conversion but the problem is when this happens the strength should be set to -1 and never break apart but instead all the pieces break apart and go flying. Tried messing around with different strength values and methods but can't seem to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. I've included the project folder with some flipbooks and screenshots of what I'm talking about. Thanks Heli.zip HardConstraintTest(ODForce).avi
