Hello again,

I have found my problem, but i don't understand why this happens?

I found that the problem exists until i change one default value in the "Hair Generate" Node.
Under the "render" tab, "hair Generation" appears by default on the "Generate geometry in mantra" setting.
When i change it to "Use SOP geometry", mantra renders the hair without problems.

I hope this can help someone.

Thank you, i will take another approach.

Hello,
I have Indie 19.5 thru steam, and everytime i try to render hair or fur with mantra, i get " Error: Unable to save geometry for: /obj/myObject_hairgen/RENDER "

Any clues are welcome.

Thanx for steering me towards the real solutions.
I will be more constructive in my approach.

Hello ,

Is there a way to "promote" some parameters of an HDA to UNREAL, so that the user in a game finds a slider or some kind of control that would modify this parameter for "LIVE" interaction, for example; deforming an object along a curve using a bulge SOP, but with the gamer in control of this deformation during the game?

Thanks you for any hints!

Have a good one!

Hello geniuses,

Sorry for the noobness of my question, but what is the correct way of obtaining a good topology for a traced logo?
As soon as i extrude it, it becomes weird looking.
I have tried adding normal node, or facet node, but not with much success.

Could someone point me towards a good step-by-step on how to do this the right way?

Thanks in advance!

Ok, i'll be fine!
Thank you Luca Pattaracchia for your great way of teaching !

Hello Friends,

I am trying to do a simple setup for crowds of wandering characters on my project's landscape... i just need the characters to walk slowly for a few seconds, stand for a few seconds, then restart walking in a different random direction... and so on.
The only other thing i will need after i get the movement and transitions right, is to limit the regions of my landscape the characters can visit to stay within these regions.

For now, all i get is :

- characters in their walking state walk ok accross the terrain.
- characters in their standing state continue slipping forward.

If i change the initial velocity of "1" to "0", i get inverse effect,
- characters in their walking state walk "in-place".
- characters in their standing state look OK.

For this project, i have to stick with version 17.5, but i am sure it's a common issue.

Thanks for ANY help !

Hello!

I was wondering if someone had a suggestion for 3D object viewing software for windows that would allow to see compatible objects right from their explorer window...
i remember a tool from long ago called mootools , which still exists , but does not look like it was updated in a long time..

Thanks!
