View Full Version : Dynamics: Jitter on rigid body brick wall.

Hey all,
What I am trying to do is make a wall of cinder blocks fall, as if by decay and weathering, triggered by vibrations from a near by catalyst.
I'v been having this problem with dynamics. When I catch the simulation ( like 700 frames worth), the bricks at the top of the wall seem to jitter( like molocules bouncing off eachother). I turned on dampening to about 10. I also turned off bounciness in the rigid body solver attrib editor. And I am using mid point for faster calc times. Short of keying the visability of a non-dynamic wall "out", and the dynamic wall "in" when it starts to fall, I have no solution.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance,
nak

the other solution i happened across was to bake the animation and just deleete the keys that are annoying me, but this feels cheap. still hungry and confused!
