MostHated Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I am not sure what is going on here, but when I make a new primitive, without adjusting any settings or anything, the edges are too long as seen below: I can't figure out what is going on with it. It must be a setting of some sort that I just can't find. Anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 yes.....my idea is you upload the file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MostHated Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 Ah, yes, that is probably a good idea. Here is the file. Any of the current two boxes or the tube seem to do it. (or if I made a new one, as well) rigid_body.hiplc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 hmm...what am i looking for here ? at what stage does the error appear ? my pet peeve...when testing....why do ppl insist on using 3 levels of fracture ? makes no sense to sit around waiting for the fracture to finish...when you really want a simple fracture to debug what's wrong.

MostHated Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 It started the instant I opened it up and flagged any of those primitives for view. It happened right away. I think something strange might be going on, on my end though. The group and attribute display menu was not turning the window on and off. (https://i.imgur.com/HoKodVP.mp4) Someone else took a look earlier to see if they could see why that menu wasn't working, and it worked fine for them. So if the primitives look fine to you, then something is up that I have to try and figure out. As for why I have done anything I have done, it is because I have pretty much no idea what I am doing. This is the first thing I have ever made in Houdini, so I have no idea if what I am doing is good, bad, or even correct. I am just trying things out to learn what they do and how to do things. The fracture only takes about 5-10 seconds to complete, so I didn't think much of it. Thanks, -MH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noobini Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 if I open your file, without changing anything, the boxes look fine, the tube looks fine...add a new torus...looks fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MostHated Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 Ok, my apologies for wasting your time. I will try and figure out what is going on, on my end. I appreciate you taking the time to look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) no worries ps: I'm still on an ancient rig i7 4770K...hence I age a bit while waiting for fractures Edited January 21, 2020 by Noobini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MostHated Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 I am with you on that. I had a Ryzen 5 2600, which isn't terrible, but just upgraded to a 3950x because I didn't feel like waiting, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 ......32 threads..? is the 4.7GHz boost speed on all cores or one ? if I win the lotto....1st item on shopping list is a Ryzen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MostHated Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Na, all-core boost when properly cooled, stable, is about 4.4 or 4.5 I believe. Even though I have a beastly Castle 360ex cooler I just did a pretty tame 4.2 or 4.3 because I just don't trust myself very much, lol.
