Hi!
Here and working hard for the release ;-)

Hi All :
Back from an extended vacation and then a large
industrial project . See some interesting mails
sharing some cool work & projects this summer .
I think it's OK to share some DynAtomic stuff
with this list from time to time . Here's a cool
but simple tablecloth from this April .
Simply created a rectangular cloth object in DynA-
tomic and let it fall on a rectangular collision
object to get a very smooth & realistic draping .
Used the RS built-in Collision modeling to get
an exact amount of nice sharp edging at the top
of the tablecloth .
Cheers

Hey Garry,
Welcome back!
Talking about Dynatomics: I did a little experiment with Dynatomics and Chrono.
Good news: it's possible to use Chrono objects as Dynatomics
Collision objects, here's the proof: www.athanor3d.com , all the way
down (Xvid avi, 6 MB).
I simply converted the relevant Chrono bodies from the Watts
mechanism example to DA collision objects and draped a cloth over it
(technically a Soft Object, not a cloth).
Although this works to a degree, it would be nice to see more
integration of Chrono, DA and the native RS system in the future!
cheers,
Mark H
PS I found this German special effects company that produced their
own custom simulation software a la Realflow:
