Had a little time this eve to fix some shit and add standard collisions back in

Tidied it up if anyone wants to have a play, probably better ways to set this up but it’s not horribly convoluted (at least by my questionable standards 😂 )

don’t forget Ben’s rad presentation!

@nicholas ralabate @jake rice 😮 This is a really stupid example, but it demonstrates the technique nonetheless

Sorry, my discord notifications were off – so I didn’t see this until I switched on my computer

I’m using a complied block in a sop solver and processing both geometry and constraints in the same step – and they work in tandem 🙂

sooooo nice

@nicholas ralabate this is page that i am doing in my free time i started last year its still very WIP, but you can see some numbers, at bottom of page www.igorfx.com/fx_aws/

yeah I have a file for that somewhere. You still need to resim it from the velocity field though

not the pyro, just the rest fields.

lemme try and find it

rest field from vel field

makes it so you don’t have to resim the entire pyro just to get a change in the rest fields

Hey guys did a quick tip vid on getting some nice creasing/folds with Vellum: www.instagram.com/p/CTojOVEjMGK/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

For @mestela : increase bend stiffness, enable decreasing dropoff, set threshold angle to something pretty low

@NickTaylor dont know if you still on here, but this tweet saved my bacon today, thanks! https://twitter.com/_nick_taylor/status/868872047119790085?lang=en

always thought gas intermittent solve was for phd pyro wrangling, alas it lets you source grains sanely

yeah they just go away

cuz like there will be no zero crossing most likely

if the inset is too small, and the resolution isnt high enough ull get artifacts though

so if u want realllly thin borders ud have to crank the resolution to like 1000 frequency on the sphere

lemme save this out one sec

may contain traces of peanuts, but seems to work well for these simple tests
