gangland Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 hello guys, i with a scene that has an moving tire, while it pass the on the surface the gravel begin to fly and blow away. i scattered an bunch of geometry into the surface. in the dop level, ive used SOP solver in pre-solve to give the active=1 to the points(and "hold" the active 1 using an solver) but none of this shit worked, ive messing around and debuging the spreadsheet with no luck att all, i lost. Thanks ps: i will attach an simple setup of this active_by_geometry_v00.hip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) here's just a different way of solving the problem this way...the ones lying on the outside can still be awaken if hit by the middle ones....and so they might start off a chain reaction (ie. avalanche) vu_active_by_geometry_v00.hipnc Edited October 13, 2020 by Noobini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A solver sop is dopnetwork with sopsolver dop node in SOP context (dive into the sopsolver and you can see it). Work inside your sopsolver dop as if you inside solver sop already. See the attachment and pay attention that you are packing your geo twice: first in copy sop, second in assemble sop. active_by_geometry_v01.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
