Ok awesome. Thank you much. One question though how does one go about adding points to a point group? Would declair a pointer to a pointgroup then add each point as a *GEO_Point? Does it act like a vector as far as data structure goes?

HDK deleting points March 8, 2013, 1:17 p.m.

Hey all,
I have been having issues with deleting dead particles in a GEO_PrimParticle system. I will refer to the SOP_SParticle.C example file. When using this node as the particles reach the end of their life they are marked for deletion by use of deadParticle(). All of these marked particles are then deleted by deleteDead(). The issue I have run into is that this only deletes the vertex not the point. The points still show up in the viewport and just stop moving. I am trying to figure out how the points and verticies can be deleted. I have been searching and trying to figure this out for a bit now so I am posting on here because I have been unable to figure it out. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you much.
