Thanks Mr.Magnus, I was using the sop solver initially but due to my limited knowledge I couldn't figure out how to then make the attribute fade. I managed to find another way by removing the sop solver and using the attribtransf do the work but this provided me with 1 frame cd values, which is the opposite of the problem I had with sop solver but then I used a chop net to lag the attribute, this way its fully controllable.

many thanks!

Hey guys, building a simple rain rig using attribtransfer which works great but once my particles hit the grid and the grid gets all the little white dots, they stay there forever and I don't want that, I need the cd value to disappear after a specified amount of time. any idea how I could do this?

Im learning but im still a ways away but I thought maybe some sort of expression which counts how long a prim/point has been anything but black then when it reaches a certain e.g. frame limit of 25 it turns the cd value to 0,0,0 again.

many thanks!

edit** I don't think I can use the particles $age value here as once the particles hit the grid theyre not exactly linked anymore are they so the values mean nothing?

any idea how to shatter glass but hide the seams? Im after a effect where in I dont utilise the 2 frame switch from geo to fractured geo. I need to the glass to gradually shatter from whatever point I choose and not show the fracture marks beforehand. any ideas?
