if using an emitter you might be able to just place a destructor at the height you want them to be destroyed, upload your file and I’ll take a look.

You’re welcome!
Greyscalegorilla is a pretty darn good resource, check out the rest of the videos.

=( it’s definately an upgrade worth the money.

looks to me like they stick to the corners ok, I’ve animated the spheres and it looks ok to me, but maybe I misunderstood..

yeah, not sure then if this would work, here is a very rough example of what I was talking about though. you could set this up via xpresso so that you only have to animate the 1 circle, I just don’t have time so I went with crude hehe.

a .c4d file is worth more than a billion words
here is an example of what I think you’re trying to accomplish, if you set ditribution to even then everything should work out..animate the offset and you have them moving around your spline, evenly.

Interesting issue.. I don’t think any of the deformers would work out.. but what if you toss 7 or so circle splines into a loft nurb all on the same Y position then keyframe these circle splines up the Y to give you a hemisphere? not sure how that would work out though with the ornaments… can you upload your file?

If I understand you correctly you might want to look into some plugins, I bought one called Xplode for 11 bucks and it works great, there are some free ones also, I think I heard something called Xbreaker might be useful and free. it would be a lot of work to set this up without them. then again if you just want your object to collapse with flat polys (not chunks) then you can start by separating your polys and tossing them into a mograph fracture object.
but like Michael the mega poster said, a closer look at the file / more info would be helpful.

I don’t see anything dynamic about the wires or anything for that matter, it just looks like they are thin cylindars parented to the signs and the signs are just key framed animation.
You could make this better though by using spline dynamics.

could you upload your c4d file? what you’re trying to accomplish is not so clear, but a guess would be that you answered your own question, set the distribution to even.
