Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

Do you have a RBD simulation running while deleting polys? On Wed, Jan 20, 2016 at 3:08 PM, Morten Bartholdy wrote: > Pretty fast, but a also bit shaky. Getting a lot of crashes, especially > when negating the Point In Volume node. > > > > MB > > > > > Den 20. januar 2016

Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

No I am trying to keep it as simple as possible, so I have frozen everything and only have translation animation on it. I was trying to create the inside of object A ( disappearing object) by doint the same polygon deletion reversed, ie. having an identical ICE tree on a copy of the volume used

Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

Well deleting polygon happens in Modeling stack, while the simulation happens in sim stack. Not sure something like Momentum handles this... On Wed, Jan 20, 2016 at 4:00 PM, Morten Bartholdy wrote: > No I am trying to keep it as simple as possible, so I have frozen >

Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

I was thinking it might be possible to cache the RBD sim out with Alembic and use that for deleting polys. I guess I will have to do a simple test. MB Den 20. januar 2016 kl. 16:05 skrev Olivier Jeannel : > Well deleting polygon happens in Modeling stack, while the

Re: AD licensing letter - no longer applicable for 'benefits'???

It´s the first time I realize there is a catch that means when I´m on subscription support, I get to upgrade existing my perpetual license but then am supposed to stop using any of my previously existing (or upgraded) licenses once I decide to stop subscription. By paying more money for

Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

Hiding geometry in this fashion is usually accomplished with shading and/or render passes, not geometry operators. If using render passes, simply make a constant black object as the volume and unplug it from the primary ray port of it's material shader. Particles inside the volume will not

Re: AD licensing letter - no longer applicable for 'benefits'???

for a network floating license the “feature” is obviously just to keep you on subscription however for the user the licensing system does all the work it should do, it only allows you to use the number of licenses you purchased, whether that be version 1 or the latest, really “should” make no

Re: Redshift users?

We switched to Redshift, we're running 10 licenses. Amazing value for the investment compared to a CPU farm. On Tue, Jan 5, 2016 at 1:32 PM, Morten Bartholdy wrote: > Out of curiosity - how many of you have started using or completely > switched to Redshift? > > > Regards

Hiding geometry inside volume?

I have a shattering and d emolition project going on and would like to hide shattered bits gradually by animating a volume to gradually surround them, or something to the same effect. My question is how to go about hiding objects when they are inside a volume? Can I do that in ICE? I can delete

Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

I tried that one and Test Inside Geometry, but there I get a context mismatch not allowing me to connect to the Is Element port. Polys vs. points thing. How can I solve that? I checked the docs but they are kind of sparse on this topic. MB Den 20. januar 2016 kl. 13:17 skrev Olivier Jeannel

Re: Hiding geometry inside volume?

The UV handling is a bit sketchy. When the null gets above a certain size the UV crap out on part of the geo. A copied version of the exact same setup with identical sizes is fine... Is there something particular I need to do to keep UV's intact? MB Den 20. januar 2016 kl. 13:49 skrev

Dooh - got it working with Test Polygon inside Null. Would be lovely if I could test if poly is inside another volume. MB Den 20. januar 2016 kl. 13:17 skrev Olivier Jeannel : > In Ice : > Maybe Delete polygon inside null ? > > Get Null -> Test Polygon Inside Null
