  • Dynamics Bouncing Ball question

    Posted by United Fan on October 25, 2007 at 9:05 pm

    hello all

    i’m a newbie with dynamics and was messing around with a dynamics bouncing ball tutorial. I’ve gotten the ball to bounce however it’ll never fully come to a rest and when it does, it starts vibrating…

    i’m basically using the default setting apart from changing the collision detection to Full on both the Ball and Floor and changing the Total Mass of the floor to 0 and the Ball to 1. Apart from that i’m not really doing much….

    whaat is the setting to get the darn thing to come to a complete rest or complete stop????

    help….

    I wish I knew how too! It’s driving me insane! The ball keeps vibrating between three planes with rigid body I created to keep the ball in place.

    Please help!!!

    Hi Brian,
    I’m using R12, I kinda worked it out… but I’m sure it’s not the right and easiest way. I can’t even recall how I did it. If you have a specific way please post so it would help others… and me in the future perhaps.

    Thank you!
