Hello everyone!

For a PFlow scene I use a birth script by Bobo, where N geometry objects generate N particles. Is it possible to assign or inherit the material from the source geometry, so that particle N1 gets the material (and mapping) from object N1, etc...?

Thank you very much!!!

You need PF Toolbox #1 from www.orbaz.com

do you use this script by bobo as well?

http://www.scriptspot.com/bobo/mxs5/pflow/pflow__inherit_UV.htm

itīs not exact the shader on each particle but the color of the UV...

otherwise follow dekoīs tip with the toolbox! the node you seek for is called "mapping object"


kind regards

Thank you for the answers, guys.

The texel colour inheritance is nice, but it concerns only colours, not whole textures. Furthermore I had some problems with the WSM Camera Map Modifier on the emitter objects. But now it seems I've managed to fix the problem with a small script I wrote, that bakes the whole texture stuff. So now it works! :-)

Best regards & Danke!

the script is really cheap:


auswahl=selection
for auswahl in selection do
maxOps.CollapseNodeTo auswahl 1 off


but works for me :-)
