evanrudefx Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) Hi, In the past, I have worked with cloth and grains. I could get a result by mixing animation and simulation together by using the targetP attribute. Does regular Pops not have the targetP attribute? I don't like the results I am getting from pop steer seek or particle attract. I included a scene where I am forcing the position to update. The problem is I don't want to update attribute P, I want targetP. Maybe I can get a target P from rest position? Any help would be appreciated. edit: I can do the morphing after dops, but it would be nice to have it as a force : ) Thanks test_particles.hip Edited July 16, 2018 by ejr32123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianr Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Here are just some various ways. You can see the difference between normalising the direction vector or not, adding to force or vel, etc. Plus the normal Pop Attract. test_particles_02.hip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanrudefx Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 hmm, it seems like grains are more stable when it comes to targetP than regular pops : ( The problem is it needs to morph really fast and not keep wiggling. Anyway thanks, I figure out something : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianr Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 If you need a super fast morph with no wiggle can you not just use a blend shape or mix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanrudefx Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Yea, I saw this, the problem is there are no dynamics : ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violalyu Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Hi Evan, Maybe you could try popSteerSeek, it was for flocking/crowd but it allows for a certain level of control over the force and behavior. Hope it helps! Best, Viola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanrudefx Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 (edited) I mentioned in my first post I didnt like the results from pop steer seek : ( thanks though Edited July 20, 2018 by ejr32123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
