Re: eliptical waves in Soft

2016-10-14 Thread Chris Marshall
OK so my workaround to have many eliptical waves is to have individual
grids with waves on, scaled to make them elliptical, then my main surface
is shrinkwrapped onto those using raycast location in ICE.
I've still got a slight issue where they overlap, but it's pretty much
there.

Re: eliptical waves in Soft

ideally I want to apply 7 or 8 waves to the same surface, each with a
different elliptical profile.

Could you scale the grid points, apply the wave deformer, and then scale 
it back after?

Oh I see. Rather than use a wave, use ICE to deform the surface using sin.
Or I was just trying the lattice on wave idea, but can't get that to work.
I'll carry on dabbling.

Use a lattice box on the grid and scale it as needed? Just put the lattice 
deformer on top of the wave deformer.

Hi All,

I'm using a standard wave deformer in Soft to deform a grid into a ripple 
effect. This is fine as I've done this a thousand times, but on this occasion I 
need the ripple to emit in an eliptical way. I thought just scaling the wave 
deformer would do this, but it doesn't  Or I've done something wrong.

Any ideas on this?

Thanks
