    Particles, collisions, deflectors

    Posted by Frank Glinski on February 15, 2008 at 10:01 pm

    I am trying to make my particles bounce inside a tube.
    Is there an easy way to do this, without using xpresso?

    Thanks,
    Frank

    Use Thinking Particles. This is straight forward use of them and the linked tutorial is great…you may need to watch the entire series of 5 but they are only a couple minutes each.

    Hey Randy- The tutorial was useful for me…. but I want to make the particles a liquid. I tried adding different things into a metaball. But that certainly doesn’t seem to be working. I’m just trying to get a mercury like liquid substance to spread over an Extrude NURBs object. Maybe I’m going about this all wrong. But I’m starting to tear my hair out trying to figure this out. Any thoughts?

    This is one area of C4D I’m still beginner-ish at.

    Thanks!
