Hi,
maybe it's a silly question but I can't find a solution in Maya documentation.

I try to make a softbody with any object. I create for exemple a nurbs cylinder and increase the number of faces. Then I go in the dynamics menu and turn this cylinder into a softbody. But I have this message :

Error: makeNurbCylinder1: This object cannot be made soft (it has no valid geometry, or too many). Please check your selection.

I noticed this error occurs only when I modify the cylinder's number a segment.
I'm a newbye in dynamics so if someone can help me :D

Thank you

just create a wrap object and make a softbody from the wrap deformer! it should work. (i think :))
