Rigid Body Issue May 24, 2017, 3:42 p.m.

Hey everyone!
I'm trying to visualize a scene in which a kind of spaceship breaks through the ground.
But I've got 2 major issues with my rgb sim:

1) I can't find a reliable way of defining the mass of the Ground. All the pieces - altough they are about 5m long - fly through the air as if they would be “pieces of paper”.

2) I don't want to break all of the geometry - just those pieces which are in contact with the keyframed object, the other parts of my ground should stay still.

For hours I've been searching for answers and obviosly couldn't find any.

Thanks for every bit of help!

RBD Simulation lagging Feb. 6, 2017, 5:46 a.m.

Hey everbody!
I'm just starting out with simulations in Houdini and I've got a problem (obviosly ;b).

Whenever I try to move an object which is part of an RGB Simulation system it laggs like crazy.
In addition to that the simulation playback is very choppy (while simulating AND after the Keyframes are baked).

I've wondered where the lag is comming from since the CPU usage maxed out at about 3-5%.

My System Specs:

64GB DDR4 Ram
Intel Xeon E5-2640v4 (10 physical cores @ 2.40GHz)
Nvidia GFORCE 1080 Extreme (8GB)

I'm looking forward to your answers.

Cheers!
