View Full Version : Dynamic beads using hair...

I am trying to get several strings of beads to be animated with dynamic interaction between them.

I found a thread on the forum that showed how to use Hair and MoGraph to create the strings of beads and they move well and have good life to the motion but when more than one string is used, they look like the Rockettes, all strings of beads moving as one.

I have been trying to get them to use dynamics to interact and bounce off each other but every time I do, the strings freak out and start going all over the place in horrible ways.

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

I can't post an attatchment on the forum so if you need more information or have any ideas, please let me know!

Thanks!

What sort of spline are you using? Maybe try using BSpline instead of bezier.

cheers
