syflex cloth flying in the flower garden


#1

Hello friends,
For my new project i want to make syflex cloth flying over a sunflower garden in a breeze,any one help me to find a solution in syflex for this kind of animations. before flying the cloth should be in the static constraint the in the breeze it want to fly.

Hi, I am not sure this means
“be in the static constraint the in the breeze it want to fly.”
But I think your question is to animate a stopped(static) cloth to fly up by breeze motion.
I will apply gravity force to make cloth put intial position and shape, and next, use wind and turbubulence forces with keyframing for a nice breeze looking motion.

Hello friend,
Thanks for your reply,but i want to make clear of my question using an image.
please go to www.corbis.com and search using “HANGING LAUNDRY” keyword,see the resulting images (the clothes are hanged in laundry), know you understand my question,
I want to make the clothes flyingover a sunflower fields, from the intial state.
intially the cloth is constrained using nail/pin to hang in the rope.then by the air breeze the cloth released gradually from the constraints(from the rope) and starts flying over a sunflower field. finally the cloth wants to rest in a ground(grass field). please provide me a solution.

Hi,
>>>I want to make the clothes flyingover a sunflower fields, from the intial state.
Make a HANGING cloth and create a basic syflex with two Pin or nail constraints.
Start simulation, stop it when you get a nice shape, and Initial state > set from cloth in order to create the intial state.
>>>by the air breeze the cloth released gradually from the constraints(from the rope)
To make “gradually”, make a key frame animations to Distance, stiff, and Active attributes of constraint attribute.
>>> finally the cloth wants to rest in a ground(grass field).
use wind and turbubulence forces with keyframing.

good luck

Thanks for Reply,
Hello friend i have tried the solution which you have provide.
i able to complete two steps but the last step is troubling me, after releasing from hanging laundry i want to make the cloth fly over a field with some air resistence and gradually come to rest from air to ground.pls clear my doubts.

I don’t understand your trouble very much, but maybe about “gradually”?
Try one of these:
1 Don’t you forget to make animation of gravity from XX to almost ZERO?
2 You can try to create a dummy poly plain/box as a collider, and put it under the cloth, animate it to contorl altitude.
3 Try to select vertexs of corners/edge/some of the cloth and make a pin constrain with distance 0-10, stiff 0.0001. Then, animate pin object.
4 Or, you could post your scene file to show.
