Marius,
Added one extra array to your patch and I've achieved pretty much all I needed. thanks! sample attached. Thank god the IDs don't continue to increment.. Preparing a 'round robin' table for this could've made things a lot more messy. -- David Shimamoto
You want to use part_info for that. and it depends on what you want to relate the rotation to... if you just relate it to age or position or ID, then it is easy, but if you want a different random rotation speed for each particle, that's more difficult. I only can think of using a table for that, but I am not so sure, if this would be fast... and then use a combination of ID and everytime when the age is 1 write new values. I attach a patch that does this, but I think you probably don't need to do it so complicated.marius. PSPunch wrote:Hi all, Taking a break from audio processing for a while, I am lately appreciating playing around with GEM. I was wondering if there is an object that can add random rotation to each particle, or whither this was possible at all. I am imagining that the program internally contains the location and vector of each particle. If there is no array tracking the rotation (and maybe a rotation vector) of each particle, perhaps this is not possible easily. My initial goal is to render the particles as geos and have each rotate at different speeds. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks. -- David Shimamoto _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing listUNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
