Thansk for the tuts ! For the issue with the chain not "updating" the rotation every 2nd pattern, I found out that (in Maya 2022), if you just uncheck the curve node et reactivate it right away, the replicator node under it gets applied. Toggling the activation of a specific mash node seems to update the node under it and apply it once you toggle on the node over it again.
@JanJinda2 жыл бұрын
Yep. Very true.
@ikbo5 жыл бұрын
I found it easier to model the link as two pieces and then avoid the replicator node all together. This way you won't have to rotate the mesh to get it to conform to the curve. It does that out of the box when using the curve node.
@JanJinda4 жыл бұрын
Does it bend those two according to the curve? I have to try that. However you won't get random 'noise' between those two I guess.

Awesome. I have been looking for a way to make chain shoot out like in the movie Alita Grewishka. Is it possible? Or maybe move with your chained lizard? Like grow chain animation.
@JanJinda4 жыл бұрын
I'm just guessing, but growing should be possible by animating MASH parameters. As MASH is made for motion graphics that should be doable. Try to search for MASH animation in documentation. As for movement with lizard, in that case, the chain has to be simulated as a rigid body.

I tried so often to work with MASH but it always give me strange behaviour. I gaved it a chance again, this time when I add a curve to the mash editor it (as followed in the tutorial) it will hide my mesh and nothing happens. If i turn my mesh on in the Outliner all Inputs from the Replicator doesnt effect the mesh anymore. I don't get it.
@JanJinda4 жыл бұрын
It can be caused by multiple issues. Pivot point on a wrong place, weird offsets in the replicator or so. Original mesh is not modified, that should stay hidden. New mesh is created by replicator, usually called *_ReproMesh.

hi, i found this tutorial very usefull, i´m trying to do a procedural rope, so i create a cylinder eliminate the caps make uvs and then use the mash options, but with the Mash method the end of the cylinder i´m use did not connect and merge with the start a of the next one as if i use for example the extrude method along a curve. There´s any option to do that? Thanks for the tutorial.
@JanJinda4 жыл бұрын
Hi Emilio, I'm pretty sure rope would be better to be made by Extrude Along Curve or possibly Curve Warp. MASH is made for instancing geometries so you would have to merge those vertices afterwards.

I did everything you did in the tutorial but with a different object (A cylinder with a Helix around it. I combined it with Bolean->Union and merged all vertecies as well as freezed the object and deleted the history) but it doesnt work. It doesnt follow the curved. It makes a turn, but its not following the curve that I dragged into the Mash-thing (the display on the right). Very weird. I know that you probably cant help me with it from what I told you, I just wanted to vent my anger :(( Origianlly I wanted to make a long tube that has a Helix around it, but I dont know how else I should make this oh and, its not really working with other obejcts as well. Pretty weird Edit: So, I tried it with a Helix and it works as it should. I tried it with a Sphere and that doesn work
