View Full Version : Constraint an object to cached deformation

Hi, is there any way to attach an object to a surface already deformed?
in the example attached, I tried to attach the small cylinder to the selected polys of the flag.
the flag is already deformed with clothilde and the animation baked.
I know there's a clamp point constraint but I'd like to follow the orientation of these polys too.
how can I constraint to the flag if the axis of it doesn't follow the deformation?

I know the example is very simple, but I'm trying to understand the general rule to attach rigid object to soft bodies defromed with clothilde.

thanks.

instead of clamp point try clamp surface, The cloth shouldn't even have to be cached to work you just need a late priority like Generatores +101
