Mala Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) Hi, I'm new to Houdini and I'm trying to create a dandelion blowing in the wind type of effect. So far I have the constrained the dandelion seed geometry on a sphere and have created a pop network so the dandelion seeds fly off. This is fine however I'm trying to find a way to make the particles stick to the surface and only fly off the surface when the seeds reach a certain angle ( say 20 degrees ) from the normal. I've been looking at this tutorial of how to create this effect in Maya but I'm finding it difficult to translate this into Houdini. I think you're supposed to use VOP's to create the same effect but I'm just a bit puzzled of how to do so cause I haven't used VOPs before :/. Maya Tutorial I've attached my file below. Thanks in advance! DandelionGeo.hipnc Edited September 9, 2014 by Mala Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
