Hello,

How can i stick a circled obj to the grid to edit or reshape it by moving its points only horizontally. Thank you very much.

Steve

Hi Steve,

Did you try the Lattice SOP ?


Emanuele

Thanks very much.
But, how can i use the node.
I trid it right below the circle. It's not workng

Steve

I saw you have added “only horizontally”…
what do you mean?

I thought you would reshape the obj using a sort of semplified cage as the lattice does, am I right?

Thank you very much again.
Yes, i did added,

I textured and animated a butterfly wing and realized that i should have started using curve with CVs method instead of " Freehand "
And, now, i want to reshape the wing using CVs Method. But, the wing is already textured & animated and i can not stick the wing to the grid to reshape it. I've attached the dummy file for your review.
That's the problem. Can you help me please ?

Steve

By the way:

Can you do CHOPs work using music.
I am trying to drive my objs animated by music.
Can you help me and if you can how do you charge ?

Hi Steve,

I saw your last file… be careful with the warnings you have in the capture nodes and somewhere else, you should try to solve them.

About your idea to reshape the fly with a grid… I used a Project SOP…

Take a look to the scene I attached and let me know if is that what you are trying to achieve.

For the CHOPs and music… well… one step at time…
start with study the guide to see what kind of nodes the CHOP context gives to you and then if you like maybe you could be interested in http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1268&Itemid=66 [sidefx.com]

I remember there was another simpler example online but at the moment I don't remember where… so, try to look around and see what other people have already done.

When I will found the link to the tutorial I saw, I'll post you.


Good luck with your project,

Emanuele

Thanks Million !

I will take a careful look at the file you've attached.
I appreciate your promise to post the info i need.
I look forward to communicating with you again.
Thank you so much again.

Steve.
