Using a particle instances and replace a particle with an object

#1

Let me describe what I am going for and see if anybody can point me in the right direction…

I want to create a tornado effect but instead of particles replace them with an iPad. 30-60 iPads. In each iPad I need to have different screens of either stills or a movie playing.

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks
Eric

Read up on Particle Instancing.

Can you point me to a good source? I have looked at how to duplicate the same model over and over…but I guess my real question is how to put multiple different images in each of the screens of the iPad. I haven’t found anything on that.

Afraid I cant do the work for you mate… do some more research.

I will give you a hint… you can have different Ipad objects with different screens loaded in maya…
