Hi Friends.
I wish to ask this through MEL .I needs to know what mel script we can use to assign particles on to the 3D geometry.
suppose I kept 10 cubes in a row and 10 cubes in column , I needs to assign particles to them but to the center :wip: of the geometry or pivot.
So what should be the best set up for this.
I dont want first to create particles and then simply instance them.
easiest way to get particles on objects is to use softbdies. So simply create a polyplane with 10x10 subdivisons, select the geo, convert to softbody and you get your particleobject with a particle on each cv.
In the case you need a particle on each pivot point of the cubes, you have to create either a new geo or query the center of each cube and place particles wirh the “particle” - command.
You could use the following bit of mel to create a particle at the translate location of all selected items ( substitute your particle name )
string $s[] = ls -sl;
for( $sel in $s ){
float $t[] = getAttr( $sel + ".t");
emit -position ($t[0]) ($t[1]) ($t[2]) -o nParticleShape1;
}
saveInitialState nParticleShape1;
Thanks a lot Sir because of You only we could able to learn maya from Its Core.
I always request you sir when ever we stuck I need yours true support and knowledge to enhance maya learning . :wavey:
Respected Sir,
What if we are also required to move and orient according to the motion and velocity of particles.
