  • Cloner Objects in Dynamics?

    Posted by Jordan Montreuil on September 3, 2008 at 8:27 pm

    I cannot for the life of me figure out how to use Cloner’s in Dynamics. I have a small cube that I want to grid array to create a huge stack of cubes and then smash them with a sphere. You know, for kids.

    But, when I put a cloner into dynamics, it doesn’t appear to be affected by the solver. I even tried putting a dynamics tag onto my solver but it doesn’t do anything.

    Am I missing something?

    I’ve never tried it but I’d be surprised if it works. Dynamics is an oooolld module — written way before MoGraph. I think you’ll have to make the cloner editable and use real geometry.

    Another possibility would be to clone onto a matrix object that’s set to generate Thinking Particles and use TP’s dynamics.
