Hi!
1.Does anyone know of book for motion waves patterns ?
I`m sure some people made papers on motions of different animals and phenomenons…

2.
example I`m transfer to Chops : P (position)
as tx ty tz

what is the most convenient way to do changes
only on tx
only on ty
only on tz
and
send it back to channel sop

do i really need to separate every attribute and build tree for it in chop net ?
and send to unique sop channel ?

hope i`m clear.

J.

Hi James,
check out common tab > scope in channel operators (Houdini help). You can decide which attrb will get affected.

Did you try tx? or tx* depending upon what you want to do.
Check the output of spring1 and spring2. spring1 is only affecting tx and spring 2 is affecting all.

I could not do that with your file :? It is affecting all the attribs. It is something about math node that we are not aware of.
Can someone please help us?

1)In the wave chop I changed the name of channels from chan to tx and created 18 channels ( tx)
2)In math chop i chose ‘match by channel name’
It worked, but I don't know if this is the right method of doing it.

There are total 18 channels in the geometry out of them only 6 are related to transformation in x. So I should have created tx in wave chop instead of tx
It works on all the tx channels.

I don't know if it is possible to create a single channel in the wave chop and add it to only 6 tx channels in the geometry chop.
