Debris and cracks! Aug. 25, 2009, 11:38 p.m.

I'm trying to animate a building falling apart. What's the best way to go about the cracks and debris? How do I make a single object crack and fall apart into many?

Thank you for the help! I appreciate it.

PyroFX question Aug. 25, 2009, 1:36 p.m.

Sorry about that. I am working on a mac pro with leopard. I am using the latest version of houdini.

After following the online video tutorials to upres my lowres pyrofx, I do not seem to get any response from the upres version. Even if i simulate, all i see is the first frame of the effect…a soft haze around the sphere i generated the pyrofx from.

I don't know what else to say about it other than ive done it a couple times now and can't seem to figure out what I could be doing wrong…

I render out both versions to disk, make sure all my outputs are set correctly and…no luck.

I will take a closer look at the issue and see if i can find any other specific issues that are occurring with this.

Maybe im overcomplicating things?
