3:01 how can I click the joint without the tool automatically creating a new one?
@forsythiia 9 күн бұрын
kinda late reply but there's a tool called 'insert joints' don't use 'create joints' because it won't select the previous joint. I also struggled with this part ;(

How you will animate a hair after converting it to cards?
@RolandReyer Ай бұрын
You could animate the cards (the polygon strips) as soft body dynamic objects. Or add some cluster deformers and animate those.

Dear Mister Reyer, I've been messing around with the PPG compounds. It is absolutely awesome. Thanks you so much for making the compounds. I'm still learning Bifrost/code basics but how can I set the offset for each individual edge when extruding. I'm also making my own compounds for my project but the inputs do add up overtime. How did you setup the dropdown menu for your components? Whether you react or not to my questions. I want to tell that I'm truly greatfull . I'm making a city for my game and without this it would take me a year to finish.

Nevermind, i can just counteract the unwanted affect with the PPG_transform compound. Jezus dude you thought of everything. Amazing stuff.

Hello there! Thanks for video! Its helpful. But i cant find part 2..3.. :( Maybe you answer.. How i can toggle attribute "true" or "false" in command: "timeControl -e -snap false $gPlayBackSlider;" by using one button? Can you help me with writing mel script for these, and maybe we see @how to@ at part2. Thanks for time, with regards, Alex.
@RolandReyer 6 ай бұрын
@Lexxzy You can replace „true“ and „false“ with „1“ and „0“. That way you can calculate the new (toggle) status with the formula (1 - currentStatus). To query the current status of the snap flag you do this: (`timeControl -q -snap $gPlayBackSlider`) !! Watch the high comma around the command! This causes it to return the value of the queried flag. The complete toggle command would be: timeControl -e -snap (1 - (`timeControl -q -snap $gPlayBackSlider`)) $gPlayBackSlider; I can’t try it out right now, I hope it works :)

@RolandReyer 9 ай бұрын
You can assign shaders to the faces by face tags. Try the node "assign_material_to_tags" to assign a material. You need to chain the nodes together for several materials and output an array of objects to Maya. Or use the node "bulk_assign_material" to assign many materials in one go. The materials (which are references to materials in Maya) show when you render the Bifrost shape.
