Hi all,
I have been trying to wrap my head around this the whole weekend and still no luck so maybe someone can help me:
I am trying to use animated objects (primitives) that also use Vellum while there are animated.
I have seen some examples and tutorials on the internet but they all cover the regular RBD objects. I haven't seen a good tutorial done withe Vellum and animated objects.
I wanted to replicate the effect similar to the one showed in the link:

I am trying to create similar thing using Vellum and Vellum String constraint but I can't get it to work.
Did someone here get it to work?
Best regards,
Robert

Hi Benjamin,
Exactly !
Thanks for a very quick reply and solution. I can see now where I made mistakes - I used group by bounding box to pin the points and placed it in the solver so everything was “almost” working except the fact that despite the “pin” group loosing its points during animation they still stayed pinned.
I thought I need to use the sop solver as the whole thing has to be updated every frame.
Thanks once again. That was very helpful.

Just one thing that I noticed - I tried to change the “thickness” attribute and when I set it to the values bigger than 0.01, for example 0.03 the noodles start to intersect and when I turn on Visualizer I can see that the 0.03 thickness is present only in the frame 0, and in frame 1 it goes back to the original one (0.01)and stays this way.
Should there also be some extra geometry wrangle in the solver taking care of the thickness?
