  • Vertex map on spline dynamics

    Posted by Chat Schoenfeld on June 21, 2010 at 9:14 pm

    Hi there,
    I have a set up with spline dynamics, and a hair constraint to an object. My question is simple, i would like to make it stiffer on the edges of the spline, where it constraints with the object. I tried to go to my live selection, mode, vertex painting, but no luck. How do I add weight to my spline?

    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers.

    There is no such control built into spline dynamics, unfortunately. You would have to use hair guides in conjunction with Hair dynamics and hair vertex tags.

    Thank you for the response. I ended up using a bunch of colliders, and setting them off on render, to emulate the effect. It worked pretty well.
