Hi,
I'm rather new with Houdini but I just try to achieve one thing with paticles.
I saw different post with sliding,creeping,cling,prim,primuvu,..ect for moving a particle over a surface.
I tried all those things on a low poly human shape and it works but the motion of the particle is random over the surface.
So my question is :
is it possible to move one particle all over a surface in a smooth way so I can simulate with the trail surface node a kind of wollen wire shape?
I tried to use the Position particle node but with different functions like sin and cos…but it doesn't work.
Any light to help me ?
thank you
