Almost... the rule here is that the vertices count has to stay the same throughout the animation. That means no spawning particles and no deleting particles otherwise you will get an error. In most particle animations I can work around this by having all the particles I need constantly, and when I want them to disappear, I scale them to 0

@@IZ.3d do you do commissions and if so how much for a quick project like the one u did in the video? I want to export a force field particles flying animation into a gltf model but i cant export particle animations into gltf models until i found this tutorial but it seems hard to do.

@@Bingbangbong28 Yes, I do. I already left my info in the description of the video. So message me on CGTrader for more details... I can't give you a price here without knowing what does the animation look like and how complex it would to recreate. You can also attach the blender file in the message on CGTrader and I will reply to you quickly there.. here is a link www.cgtrader.com/designers/iz-mdverz

Thanks!

Yes

It's almost 1 click with my addon BoneRNG to randomize rotation, just made the paper and parented to some bones with automatic weights. plus some manual adjustments Should I make a video about it? 🤔

coming up soon 😁

Thanks... more to come

Hi, yes I can help.. tell me what blender version are you using. and which file did you use the original or the updated one?

@@IZ.3d I used blender 3.6. and this glitch occured when I imported an fbx. It's probably a blender glitch. Not your node tree glitch. Thanx though!

Alright, let me know if you need any more help

Yes, but you just have to keep in mind that the vertex count of the animation has to be constant for shapekeys to work otherwise you will get an error... there are many ways to create it using things like geometry nodes and it depends on the animation you are creating itself

Glad I could help! and you can subscribe for more glTF tips and hacks

​@@IZ.3d subscribed c:

I'm working on a free addon that can do this in seconds for any armature 😉

Thanks

Thanks

Yes, I use it a lot to export animations I make with geometry nodes. it doesn't work for all types of animations, it needs a constant vertices count and it only animates the location. But it helped me massively, animations I made like the dust, rain, fireworks and many more were originally made with geometry nodes then rigged with this method.

I don't use clo 3D or three.js so I can't tell you what's wrong here. like I said if you want me to check it out, export it to a format that works for you and message it to me on CG Trader. Then I will be able to tell you what could be done

it depends on the type of animation and its technical details. If you can export it to alembic (.abc) first, then you can try my short video on how to export alembic to glTF if you want me to take a look at it you can message me on my CG Trader page and send me the file to check it out

Ok, I will try to put it simply. It's made in the 3d software Blender. So I designed and textured the flaps that's the easy part. Then using geometry nodes I instanced those flaps in the familiar grid shape, and by using some creative solutions, I was able to control the rotation of these instances with a text input. It took weeks to make it this customizable with geometry nodes, and it would take hours to explain how everything is made in detail, if you get the project file you will see the entire geometry nodes setup and explore how it works if you have a specific question feel free to ask me

@IZ.3d Thank you for your reply, I have made a version before in blender 3.3, but it was manually key framed, and it looked less authentic and took a lot of time to create each title. What I'm looking for in my project is to create one like this and run it through a manipulation/projection software called isadora. This way we can create an installation in which we could have a projected version of a split flap display on the wall, displaying the titles of the playlist we have running through the sound system in the student bar. And while the one I have would work, it couldn't be easily edited in case we had a change, and it is not nearly as impressive functionally as this one.

@@maxmoore3208 sounds like a really cool project. This was the exact point of why I made this product, to make a split flap display that is intuitive and customizable. I have shared the first step of this product for free, it's the way to turn text input "String" into numbers or "float" values in geometry nodes. these values are then mapped to control the rotation of the flaps. if you are interested "String To Float" is free on my gumroad izmdverz.gumroad.com/l/stringtofloat let me know if you still have questions, and good luck with your project

Yes you can, the flaps are separate objects in a collection that are then instanced for each slot. so you can edit these flaps objects in their original collection, and it will change them in the geometry nodes system

great! already playing with it =)@@IZ.3d

Awesome! feel free to send me any feedback or any questions you have

Yes absolutely, the font is just an image texture on top of the flaps as I hinted in the video... you can change it to any font or even display images on each flap

Unfortunately fbx format doesn't support vertex animations or shapekeys. So you can't export it directly to fbx... But if it's a relatively simple animation, then you can recreate it with armatures and export it to fbx that way

Make sure you apply the transforms to the object before exporting to mdd (select the object_Control-A_All transforms)

@@IZ.3d sorry updating this late, it workred. ctrl+A to apply transform before simulating worked.
