Elastic Object

Creates an elastic cloth object from SOP Geometry or adds elastic properties to an existing cloth object.

This tool is useful for simulating objects that try to regain their original shapes after a collision, such as a rubber ball. For more information on cloth dynamics see cloth simulation.

Note

This tool only works on polygonal geometry.

Using Elastic Object

Select the object to make into an elastic object.
Click the Elastic Object tool from the Cloth tab.

Note

This tool will create a new cloth object if the selected geometry is not already simulated. Otherwise, it will modify the parameters of the existing cloth object to create the elastic effect.

For specific parameter help see the Cloth Object node help.
