Can anyone help me with this file? I would like the wiresolver to properly read the constrained rotation of a static deformed object. you will see in my file its setup and working for a constraint with and rbd object but when I use a static deformed object my rotation calculation is thrown out the window. I've been stuck on this for more then a few days now and still missing the mark. wiresolve.hip

Hi guys; I tried to change the length of a curve using Carve SOP over time, and now I want to use it as an input of a WireSolver simulation, but it doesn't work. How can I fix it? Or is it possible to use an animated line as an input of a wire-solver input? Thanks for helping. WireSolver_01.hip

I want to create hanging wires using DOP wiresolver, I followed this tutorial on Youtube: https://youtu.be/fkJOzHY8fOo But in my setup the simulation is not starting. Please help Hanging wires.hip -
I'm working on a setup where a couple of polygon curves simulated and breaking apart using a wiresolver and a sopsolver. I've only one wire object and would like to group the wires in that object that are broken so I can apply a force to them. I'm using a group DOP node and in the Group 0 Expression I've this expression prim("..:wireobject1/Geometry", $OBJ, "broken", 0) == 1 The setup works so far so that when prim 0 "broken" attribute evaluates to 1 all the wires belongs to the group and get the force. So I guess it's the $OBJ I'm using incorrectly. It evaluates to 0 because the wireobject1 is the only object in the DOP network. So how do I access each primitives primnum in DOP? If it's even possible to group primitives belonging to one object like this? Is there another way to create DOP groups? Would like to have something like a Geometry Wrangle with a create setprimgroup expression. Thanks! / John

Hello everyone. I got stuck - anybody knows how can I make the Wiresolver disable the points of the wire when they collide with the ground plane (or anything really ). Just stop solving them so they stop moving. This is a simple scene. There is only a Windforce dop with some noise and downward velocity in Y and the Wiresolver (and ground plane connected to the Static Solver). https://youtu.be/iMRW3GQ-XH8 With pops we have collision behavior but the wires don't work with pop nodes. Is there any built in functionality for this or does it need code? Extra question: When I use gravity and windforce the gravity doesn't work, so I faked it. We cannot mix those forces accepted by Wiresolver with stuff like gravity? I've tried introducing POP forces as well - with POPsolver connected to Multisolver, together with Wiresolver, but the sim just goes crazy. I've attached a test scene (I've also added a box to collide with). fallingWire_Problem.hipnc

Hello everybody. I'm bringing in a cached character animation and cached curves from Maya as an Alembic cache. I've split the character and my hair curves apart and created a DOP with wire solver where I can successfully simulate the curves colliding with the characters body and falling endlessly into space. I'm now trying to create constraints to constrain my Zero cvs for my wires to my scalp points on my cached character which is in the DOP as a staticobject. The hair curves have a group already with all the 0 cvs and the static object has a group for the scalp points. I'm trying to find a simple way to constrain these two groups together. I've tried using an sbdpinconstraint but it wants all of the constrained points and goal points to be in order so that it can constrain them to one another in that order. Is there a node or method by which I can constrain these two groups of points to one another intuitively based on distance. I'm also considering caching my hair curves in maya so that I can just glueToAnim but I'll still need to know how to constrain things. I'm a bit new to Houdini, hope you guys can help cheers.

Hi, houdini folks! I've a character that should be tied by a rope. I mean to use wiresolver with "Rest Geometry" option for wireobject switched on. But selfcollision is not working for wires. It penetrates always. I wish you help me with any advice! selfcollision_wiresolver.hip
