Hi! I'm trying to build a simple constraint network with two sets of wires (pink and black). Each set of lines should be connected within itself, and should be repelled to the other set. The wires simulate ok and the constraint of WireGlue works to keep them together. The problem is when integr...

Hi, everyone I'm trying to animate the width of a wire with a noise. Ihave no probleme to do it outside the DOP, but cant figure out to do animate the scale in the simulation. I tryed the to animate the thickness in the vellum solver, but not much more success. The only way I found wa...

Greetings, I have a wire solver setup and I want to attract wires toward a custom point. I cannot find the way how to add a force toward a certain point. should i make an attribute or use a node? any help would be appreciated. thanks,

Hey everyone, I am animating wires using the wire solver but I would like to add a bit of control so i can remove the constraints allowing some pieces to fall as i choose. I read through the constraint network houdini wiki page but I'm still having trouble. Any help would be great! Thank you!...

Hey all, I am very new to Houdini and am trying to use the wire object/wire solver to simulate fur on a tiger. I have it setup and working, but when I increase the number of curves I'm simulating, I get some issues. Mainly, some of the wires get caught inside the tiger geometry and look like th...

Hi all! I'm doing a rope sim with wire solver. And I wanna interact wire with RBD sim. I did each sim at the same time in the same DOP network. But it was not doing well. problems are... 1.Why the wire goes through the cube? 2.Why the cube breaks before the wire hits? Any s...

Hello all, does anyone have any tips on applying nice looking ambient wind to wire objects? I have several wires constrained together in a way that is working well, but I'm having a hard time getting any good looking wind to give them ambient movement. I've tried the wind force several times, but...

Hey guys, I am trying to pick up fur simulation now, have been following the Houdini 16 masterclass, I wanted to try some stuff and started by adding a ground plane inside the simulation ( node generated by the shelf tool) the guide wires are sticking to the ground. you guys know why? I tried making...

What type of simulation does the Wire Solver use?
TimVDB posted a topic in General Houdini Questions
Hello all, I'm using Houdini's Wire Solver for my master's thesis on hair simulation. In the text I want to talk about the way hair is being simulated. Based on the parameters the Wire Solver offers, I expect it to simulate Wire Objects like a mass-spring system. When searching the docume...- 2 replies

Hi there, I'm trying to connect a wire object to a sail. So far so good. Unfortunately the wire is stretching and stretching. Redusing density or mass isn't helping, also the linear spring constraint isn't doing anything usefull. Actually a pretty high value lets the wire behave crazy....

Hey there, I am currently trying to simulate a (single) falling fir-branch like the ones you can see in this image: I would like to use a wire solver for that, but I am having a hard time to make the needles stick to the branch. How would you go about that? Desired setup: *...

Coming from 3DSMAX I'm looking for a way to have a 'hose' connected to and move freely between two animated objects. As a test I have two boxes, between which I have drawn a curve/line. The two boxes I then convert to static rigid bodies, and the curve into a wire. If I use attach wire to surface -...
