rendertimes Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hey there, I'm currently trying to get a trampoline effect in Houdini. My current set up is using a grid as the trampoline, and I have a sphere falling onto the trampoline with a mass of 15 all in a vellum cloth set-up. Solver has 10 substeps. I get a small initial bounce, then it loses all bounce after that. I've tried increasing substeps, messing with the trampoline cloth stiffness and bend, lowering the rest length, etc. I can't seem to get a stronger bounce than what I have now. I'd love to maintain the first bounces "bounciness" with all the following bounces. Any help would be very appreciated! Scene file attached and test vid attached.

neo_hrmt Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Hi! I know it's been a while but do u think you'd be able to post the file? I'm really struggling to get a good trampoline effect. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
