Pingo, how did it go along? I think it´s about time that someone nails this kind of compound. I remember back in SI 7 there was no "flow along curve" then it was given to community, we need a "factory preset" turbulize on curve flow :)

I thought this was gonna be real easy. Orlando, looks like your compound is doing the trick I'll dive into it. Thanks!

Just explode the compound and tweak it. A couple of comments will tell you what's doing what... it's pretty simple compound so you shouldn't have troubles understanding it. It should go between your "follow curve" nodes and your "strand trails" nodes. > >Hope that helps, >Orlando. > > > > ><image.jpeg> > > > > >On Sat, Jun 1, 2013 at 12:34 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > >are you adding the turbulence on the position, like: "get >position->turbulence->set position"? >>If so the turbulence will be very "strong" and mostly override the effect of >>any forces. >> >>if you add the turbulence as a force (turbulence->add forces), it's influence >>will be less radical >> >>for a flow along curve, I'd combine three forces / vectors. >>- subtract pointposition of the closest location on the curve from the >>particle's position (or the other way around) to pull the particles towards >>the curve >>- pointtangent of the closest location on the curve for the movement along >>the curve >>- turbulence to randomize >> >>you can multiply each of those vectors with a scalar - and by changing the >>scalars have fine control over the blending of the different forces. >> >> >> >> >>-----Original Message----- From: Pingo van der Brinkloev >>Sent: Saturday, June 01, 2013 10:25 AM >>To: [email protected] >>Subject: particle flow along curve with turbulence >> >> >>Hey list, I have some particles flowing along a curve nicely (with strands). >>I would like to add turbulence to the particles, so they wiggle, but still >>follow the curve(!)
