Hi guys
I'm trying to make orbiting a group of particles around a point (which is moving along a curve)
I found this page http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/nodes/pop/orbit.html, [www.sidefx.com] but I can't find that node in Houdini.
It Is not the pop Axis Force.
Is there another way to do that.
Thanks for your help
Regards.

There is a PopCurveForce you can use which has orbit built right into the node.

Check out Varomix's tutorial.

Hi Enivob
thanks for your reply, but is not what I was looking for.
I do know PopCurveForce. what I'm trying to simulate it's like an electron orbiting a core that it's moving along a line or a curve.
Thanks anyway.

on your Particles shelf, rclick the triangle on the far right>Edit Shelf Tab

in Tools tab, scroll down to Orbit, select, Accept

(then it will be on the right most of your Particles shelf)
