There was an old 'certified training' tutorial that might help as it's midway between a simulation and art directable implementation of raindrops dripping off a leaf (only once the water droplets have accumulated).
Having a flick through might inspire an new approach at the very least. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZP_N8L-m7Y&list=PLDE23C84F4009F519 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Morten Bartholdy Sent: 20 March 2017 10:28 To: [email protected]; Official Softimage Users Mailing List. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/xsi_list <[email protected]> Subject: Re: ICE - generating particles at lowest points on geometry Much like this.
