Omy Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Any one explain how to destruct a RBD object using metaballs... all you need to do to destroy a building is to fracture the geometry.Having said that,you can fracture the geometry at SOP level by yourself or by using any shelf tool.so now u got it fractured nextly,you need to animate the metaball. DOPs you need to use rbd fractures,magnetforce,metaball and sopgeo. I think now you got what you wanted.I faced some problems using metaball thing worked out in H 11.I dont know whether i did resolve or not.But this is how its done. Happy houdining!

anim Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 no need for pre-fracturing in SOPs just use auto fracturing in H11, check to use magnet forces for fracturing, add magnet force and you are done, here is example metaball_fracture.hip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
