Hey Folks,

I'm trying to simulate a dangling rope using a wire deformer. The rope shouldn't get kinks, breaks or stretch. It seems like no matter what values I put in the elasticity settings, the wire always stretches when it collides with an object. Any suggestions??

Please check my attached hip file.

There is a lot to do with wires to get good result.

What i changed:

1. Wire solver - collision method - global
2. Wire solver - spatial scale. Increase (depends of scene scale)
3. Static object - increase collision SDF quality.
4. Adjust wire width, density and stiffness.
