Hi queglay
If you want to see what the error message is - MMB on the center of the node.
There are a couple of things wrong with your file;
1.) Both your spheres need to be polygons. Right now sphere_object2 is a primitive That is what the red flag error message is telling you. You should also delete the first DOP Import SOP in /obj/sphere_object2/
2.) Your RBD sphere is falling through the grid. The best way to fix this is to make your grid a Terrain Object. This is the most efficient way to make a ground object. Or you can also change your Static Object DOP -> Collision tab -> Volume tab -> Mode parameter -> to Implicit Plane. This helps the DOPs sim define it's collision geometry.

Hi Helene,
Are these EPS files?
You can try using a Font SOP. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it won't.
If you are not able to load the 2D vector files with a Font SOP you can remake them by using a Trace SOP, to trace a new outline from a rendered image. The Trace SOP works best if the image it's looking at has high contrast.

Technical Discussion » BUG(?): Matrix fields not supported by GAS Field VOP?
- Jenny

- Offline
Although we answered you through Support@SideFX.com, I though that other users should know that the bug where matrix fields weren't properly being passed to VEX is fixed in build 9.5.360.
Also note that the det of a jacobian of a 2d vel field will always be zero because the 3rd row/column of the jacobian is 0 since the velocity is all 2d.
