dynamic particle wave flow on human body!


#1

hello fellas!
i’m a stuck here at a very critical point in my project. :cry:
i have this humanoid-soldier model ready and i want to show particle waves flowing through his entire body surface in the muscular pattern, just like the particle currents flowing through his body muscles, the model is textured in the same muscular type body suit. so i was hoping is there a way to do this thing or may be like any way to flow the particles on the body surface via texture?

Hi there

You can use parentU & parentV per particle attributes to achieve this.
Make your geometry as an emitter and guide the particles in a particle expression using the forementioned attributes.

Read the maya documentation about particle expressions and particle attributes for reference.
