Hi everybody,

I have a scene, say many lamps, that have many pieces but I only want to use proxies to affect the lamps. So instead of simming multiple pieces per lamp, I want sim one piece per lamp(like proxies), affecting the multi-piece lamps by the proxies from my RBD sim. What is a good route for that?

Thanks in advance.

Now I get it.

I`ve never used the transform pieces SOP, so someone might chip in on why it doesn´t pick up your coffecup based only on the name attribute.
However…
Set the object mask on the dopimport node to rbdpackedobject1 and it works.

*edit. I have messed around with the scale in the returning scene.
