  • Tooth Paste coming out of tube

    Posted by Pierre Tessier on April 4, 2017 at 5:20 pm

    Trying to simulate tooth paste coming out of a tube. If you look at the file, I’m using a cloner, emitter and tracer. Looks OK so far but can’t seem to be able to fine tune the animation. I want the paste to come out slowly and in a straighter manner. Also, I want the tooth paste to stop moving once it touches the floor.

    Thanks!

    using a dynamics tag set to Soft Body is why the cloned spheres all can move as a unit as the later spheres are added. Straight rigid body can have a better results for movement but the end result all lays flat rather than having vertical folds as well.

    Thanks Brian. Did not think of using Rigid Body tag.
