Hey, Justin…

I believe that if you are using the luminance/alpha channels for your projection then you won’t be able to add any shadows from lights to the scene. If you use the color channel then you can. I am new at this as well and am experimenting.

Let me know if that helps… maybe someone else has some tips. Anyone?

Randy – Thanks for the files. I am having major issues… Trying to get 2 spheres to act like balloons… where they would bounce against one another.

I called maxon and told them I couldn’t get any of the dynamics settings to work. They suggested cloth but then sent me a quicktime that they created using the hair module (which I don’t have nor want to use).

I am confused on the “connect” portion of what you were talking about. Nothing I am trying is working.

Any suggestions?

The balloons I am trying to model can be found here: https://www.couchballoons.com

As you can see, I will eventually have to make a lot of them. Yet, I can’t even get two of them to work. Most of the time, the sphere(s) I am using collapse and break apart when they hit a collider. I have checked all of your settings but can’t seem to find what I am doing wrong.

Thanks!
