Self Colliding Vine / Moss Growth
Hi
I’m looking to cover an object in vines.
I need the vines to clamber over the object and themselves. So far, making them climb over the object is easy, but making sure they dont intersect when they backup over themselves is the tricky part. I have one solution but it’s not really great – nothing like the reaction-diffusion simulations in Houdini…
Any ideas how I can make a non-editeable motrace spline self-collide / self-avoid dynamically? I tried adding hair dynamics but it didn’t work…
Cheers

Personally I would do it the easy way!

Ah yes i’m familiar with this but its only really good for distance shots – plus i want something reliable and controllable. I saw x particlea can do it but i understand TP can as well?

It may be possible for a TP master. Unfortunately I can’t help you with that. ?
I would think your best bet for native tools would be the Hair Object with self collision, animating growth.
