KarlRichter 79 Posted December 9, 2020 Not long ago I was tasked with a simulation of bags of hard candy falling and splitting open on the floor, with the candy of various shapes and sizes spilling out. This turned out to be way harder then I thought. There is really no built in way for vellum and bullet dynamics to interact with each other in Houdini. After searching the internet, I did find one tutorial on kind of faking the interaction, but it seemed overly complicated to me. So after a bit of R&D I came up with this setup. Its very simple and fast, and solves both the vellum and bullet sims in one network at the same time: It basically works by importing the RBD geo into the vellum collision solver, and the vellum geo into the bullet solver. The mass of the RBD has to be faked in somewhat, so it interacts with the cloth in a more realistic way, but that's it! See hip for example: vellum_x_bullet.hip 11 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
