Hey There,

I have been trying to get my head around this all day and have not been able to come up with a working solution as yet, so if anyone could help out that would be greatly apprciated.

I am doing an animation of a paper that has to slowly fall to pieces (disintegrate), and then those pieces form wings....The way I have been trying to do this, was to emit particles from the surface and then have wings as a goal object and get the particles to form them....

Any suggestions on how this could be achieved?

Thanks in advance.

Hi. I don't know if it fits your needs, but I found this tutorial quite good as a starting point for these kind of effects:
