Easy Ice question

HI all If I had a bunch of particles shaped as a cone and a way from zero, how would one rotate them from there center using ice. Currently am freezing the ice tree and then rotating them this works, but I would love to know how to rotate a bunch of points in ice. Any ideas would be brill

not quite sure what you're missing from Brad'z vidz. the 'funnel up bit' (I'm guessing you mean the force along the curve rather than around it?) is dealt with in the first 'build force from curve' vid. This one adds the rotational component. Or am I missing the point? P On 11 December 2012

I've done this before, and I know it's simple, but I cant figure it out right now. How do I link the particle ID to a frame in a image sequence. For example: particle ID1 should get frame 1, and ID5 should get frame 5. Sorry for the rtfm question G

Also, if your 1500 images are all mixed up (different sizes, different formats etc.) you can create a text file with the extension .scr containing a list of absolute paths an import that as a clip. DAN On Thu, Dec 6, 2012 at 2:48 PM, Dan Yargici danyarg...@gmail.com wrote:

Hello, There are several ways you can do that. Depending on your gemoetry it can be easy to overly complicated :) You can check if a point is inside another volume using the point in volume node, and then use a closest location node to find the distance to the surface. What I like to do though is
