Biggest issue with SOFT BODY DYNAMICS???

[EdHarriss]

Constructive beefs only, please. :)
Lets not turn this into a rant session.

Thanks.

OK....How about what do people like most and dislike most about soft body dynamics?

[PlanetSun]

Are you talking about inside XSI, or just in general?

I haven't used softbody dynamics in any other programs, but I have no complaints about the way they work in xsi - they are quite easy to setup.

I guess no one here really has a "beef" with XSI's softbodies cuase no one has posted any, Now go to maya thread and post the same question about maya and let see the complaints fly ( though maya does have a powerful though confusing softbody implementation).

soft body is fine...but what about a nice and simple (and fast)hard body sim... :scream:

however i do have beefs with hair and cloth, but i hear its being addressed with the 3.5 update...

The cloth isnt gonna b updated till V4 - the code thats in XSi now hasnt been changed since 1996 :thumbsdow

[frumpy_bunyin]

I dislike the lack of a target and follow object in the soft bodies, and that you have to use an intemediate object to get a softbody effect on your mesh if it's enveloped or deformed in some otherway.

Cloth can do that though, still it's not an ideal solution.

Asside from that quick and easy.
