How do I make the wire colliding with my cloth like a RBD object or at least Static object ?

This is actually my first ever created dop network…(hurrah for the shelf!)

I made two cloth objects, changed some of the parameters on the wire object and then added some forces per object. Collisions are taken care of by the merge and clothsolver.

Is this what you are after? When you want an RBD object instead of two cloth object it is just a matter of adding a rbd object and a rbd solver.

Cheers,
Hans

Thank you !
but…
the cloth and the wire should mutual collide … take a look at the dop network
(wire and cloth NOT cloth and cloth)
Unless you you know how to define curve as cloth and it will behave as wire …
its not really work for me ..\

The order in which data is merged in the merge DOP is important. The solution to your problem was just to swap the two objects. Have a look at the attached file.

Have a look at the help from the merge DOP it is explained there. If there is a mutual relation you can set it on the merge DOP.

Have a look at this helpcard in houdini's helpsystem:
