Boole modeling not working with dynamics tags, probably an easy fix
Hey everyone, I’m new to C4D and need a little help. Im trying to make part of a wall fall out from the rest, like it got hit with something heavy. I did this by modeling a chunk of the wall i wanted to fall out. It has a flat face (the wall) and a jagged, rough back, the inside of the wall. I lined up the chunk with the wall so the jagged side was inside the wall, and made a copy of the chunk. I then used the boole commands to subtract the chunk from the wall, leaving a wall with a hole. then I fractured the copied chunk with thrausi (fracturing plugin). I thought I could just add a floor, and dynamics tags to everything and just simulate the pieces falling out, but they explode out super fast, even though there is a perfect hole in the wall for them. I think that when i add the collider tag to the wall (now a boole object) , It is taking the collision from the original wall, and not the final boole geometry. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks for any help!

do you have the tag setup to trigger on collision. That may be the issue if it’s exploding before it’s hit. You also might want to ad a slight margin of spacing between the shape that will explode and the main wall. Something really small that won’t be noticed but will a lot not to intersect with any other geometry.
I would suggest making the boole object editable after duplicating it since if you have it still as a boole it’s kind of memory intensive when using dynamic depending on the complexity of it.
Hope that helps.

what are the Shape settings in the Dynamics Body/Collision tab. It should be Static Mesh for the Boole
