duongduy92 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Hi guys, I am back with some ice issues again :((. Basically I would like to replicate this: https://youtu.be/QVijodeE_b0?t=84 (1m24 to 1m27). I got the hip from Ben Watt and modified it a bit, in the attribute vop inside the solver sop I plug in some noise to drive the growth effect and It turns out as I desired. But I am stuck in creating the ice spikes, like in the reference. Could somebody take a look in the hip file attached above, and provide me some hint please? Thank you very much. bwd_qt01_LM.hip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macj89 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 He has a very clean new setup for houdini 16, easier and faster, you should give a try. File aside, i would just model/sculpt the ice spikes and apply the same system starting the grow from the bottom of the spikes, and make the growing system to go faster, so u will have two systems, one for the wall itself and one for the spikes, just time them properly and here u go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macj89 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Just took ben watts clean file and did some fast geo for testing. Play with Solver_Controls max distance and max points for speed control, or just go inside and tweak the vex. Hope it helps. bwd_H16_editedIceSpikes.hiplc 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm only at day 2 Joy of Vex, so it is difficult for me to customize the look. Thank you for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. Cheers!
