Can we stamp chop parameters to have different animation for each copy?
I created an object, animated it's xform (sop level) and copied along a path in another object.
Then I created chop network (anywhere you like) fetched the animation, massaged and tried to stamp some parameter of that massage but it doesn't seem to work.
Do you have any clues? Can we copy stamp chop animation parameters?

I am not sure if you already tried this, but load the Copy CHOP example from the help browser. It uses the stamp function to vary animation for each copy and the result is sent back to SOPs using a Channel SOP. Hope this helps.

Just embed your SOP+CHOPnet into a customized SOP ( digital asset)
create a parameter in this new SOP that refers to your CHOP parameter

at the SOP level, do the usual stamp stuff( i used “param” instead of stamp but it's the same) with a copySOP after the new SOP.
It worked for me.
Hope it helps!

Thanks, this is an old message, I figured it out some time ago.
Stamping just works, I used param also because it doesn't force you to specify the copy sop.
I had some problems since these were my first days in chops.

Thanks for you replies.
