Hi Guys,

I need to create a pile of 'smartie/button' shaped objects like this; Visual (http://www.tonygold3d.com/public/Buttons.jpg)

I tried going back to my old Cinema4d v9. where fizz plugin still works and created a 'fishtank' object for my buttons to collide into but im not sure this is the most efficient way to go about it. I've no doubt, that I can create one layer and do some layer copies in photoshop to build up the depth, I just wondered if anyone had another suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Tony - SilverBullet could definitely help here, here's a movie (http://www.chriscousins.plus.com/files/PhyTools/ball_drop2.mov) made with a bunch of spheres and colliders, the objects seem to stack nicely without colliding. There's a demo, have a look here:
