Change rest geometry over time in cloth solver

[Mzigaib]

How can I use a animated mesh on the rest geometry on the cloth solver?

I tried to use a sop solver with a blend shape inside but it doesn't work.

Can someone help me?

Heres my new try, but no success.

Hi,

I looked your scene and I think xform sop after mountain sop should not change pivot. If you want change size you can change but should not change pivot.

rest position and start position has different pivot that makes problem in dops.

I delete xform and it looks working if what I did is what you wanted to do.

by the way, I don't have houdini11 and I rebuilt with 10.

cheers

Thank you very much for the help.

It really can work this way but I noticed that you changed the data name in the sop path from RestGeometry to Geometry, it's ok for the effect, but what I was trying to achieve is to affect the rest geometry.
