I have two "banners" created from a plane with a cloth modifier on each. One banner is in front of the other. I want the one in front to drop first. After it drops and is waving around a little...setting down...I want the second banner to drop. Because they are close to each other and both waving a bit, they will hit each other.
How can I have both set to be a cloth object and both set to be collision objects to the other? I thought it was one or the other. (In the cloth object properties)
I have some model boat plans (scanned images) and would like to convert them to 3D objects. I used a software img2cad for the conversion, and since the conversion is not perfect i have to redraw all the parts. So here are my questions:
1. For the parts i mostly used lines, splines and arc. What is the best way to join them, so later i can edit them to 3d solid object? I used join and it works well, however it creates a small angled edge at the end. (see image or zoom in dwg file). 2. For some of the parts the extrude command works only on the edges of the 2D object creating a hollow 3D object. How do i fill the inside? 3. In near future i would need to assemble all the parts and make the skeleton of the boat. Is there a way to check for object collision (if parts are too big for example to fit where they should)?
I also attached a file with two ribs of the boat as an example.
How do you mate two surfaces so that the item will not move any further once it makes contact with that surface? i.e a rotating cam which is designed to stop once it comes into contact with an object / surface.
Quick question: I was able to make a model and her hair is poly. I'm not using the hair and fur plugin. I was able to make the hair flow by using the flex modifier but I want to add collision to it.
So when the model turns her head, tips of the hair will flow over the shoulder and not through it. I was messing around with the deflectors but I am not getting the results I want.

Assemble several parts from Solidworks through step profile.Part2 and part3(attachments) no static interference ,when driving constraints (driver) immediately a collision report appears.Additional,when restrain the part 3(attachments)and drive constraint(driver) meanwhile open the collision detection ,finally,part2(attachments) goes through the barrier no checking collision.
I have an image that is mostly alpha.Problem is that it blocks buttons from working.Is there any way to set a flag to an image so it is not part of the 'touch/mouse' collision funcitons?
i can arrange it behind the buttons... but that brings other issues, because something needs to be behind the image with alpha but over the buttons.
I want to have some kind of collision-detection within two symbols. So when one symbol collides with another there will appear be text like "squash" or something.
I haven't found anything about collision-detecting in edge animate, but I thought I could handle it with looking for the same css-parameters of both symbols. Obj1 is moving to Obj2 on a motion path. Now I want to have a Text, when it reaches Obj2.So I tried it like this:
var positionobj1 = sym.$("obj1").css("left"); var positionobj2 = sym.$("obj2").css("left");
if (positionobj1 == positionobj2){ sym.play("Text"); }
I have images of two different canoes, one is grey, the other is orange. I would like to make the orange one the exactly the same colour as the grey one.
How do I do this? First I tried selecting the orange one, then filling it with the colour of the grey one (Edit > Fill >Mode=Colour) - but of course this retains the dark tone of the orange.
its about making 3d object from transparent picture , is it possible, for example i want to make 3d obejct from this picture URL>... so it has depht (thicknes) and everythinh .i used to apply texture on plane and cut out edges of plane so they match the picture.
im making a cnc milling machine and need to make some things to make. This is a clamp between the magazine and the barrle of a shotgun and i made the drawing in 2d to start whit and then used the EXTRUDE to make it inn to 3d.
As you can see on the top of the object there is no surface and the same goes for the buttom. How can i make a surface?
Any way of converting a black object to a grey object? We have a product that is made of black plastic with metal surround and I desperately need an image of the same product with grey plastic, but keeping the detail and metal finish.
I have an object of given area and would like to make copies of the object at a different area. It is an irregular object so is not something readily calculated in Windows calculator, any macro that would do this in X5?
So I have a student who wants to put these lines in the object. Since it would be very difficult to make these lines enclosed and looking right is there anyway to put these lines in the object. I don't understand why Emboss works on letters but not lines. That is all letters are.
I'm using DPro7 and am having trouble making a bitmap copy of an object, with a 3 colour linear fill, each time I get a serious error message box.It works OK with a 2 colour fill,
I want to make a controller that can change an object from green to red. So I wire the parameters from y position to the ambient colour.
I find to make the y_position into (y_position/100),(y_position/100),(y_position/100) but when I put this into the Parameter wiring dialogue I get a syntax error.
I want to make a walkthrough of the building I have created, and I was going to have the camera walking down the hall, with the camera aimed to the side so that you can see into each room as you pass it.
However, the doors are in the way. Is there a way to make the doors invisble in the walkthrough (or open them or something) so that it just looks like an arch-way.
I know how to use the transparency tool to make and object partially transparent but is there someway to make an entire object transparent so that what you put behind the object shows through? I am using the symbol of our logo and want to put pictures behind it so that they show though.
So let's say I want to use a picture of a coca-cola bottle from an image I found on the internet, or I take a pic of one... what is the best way to cut-it-out?
1) For instance, sometimes, the object is cut out of a white background and I want to use it on a black background... leaves a nasty outline :( - maybe its easier to take a pic of the object on a black background (which is what I usually do - but I don't feel like getting the camera out - besides, I then almost always need to touch up the photo)
and
2) how do I easily smooth the edges if a use the colour wand? before or after cutting out (Copy to clipboard)?
In Inventor, it is possible to mark a workplane with "Export Object", by rightclicking on the node. This make the workplane accessible when using the part as derived.
What is the programmatic access to the property? Can not find it on the Workplane object?
trying to make an object the exact size of the artboard. This is something I do on a daily basis for several different reasons and it would be very useful if this can happen automatically for whatever size the artboard may be. As I understand it the only way is with a script but I have no experience with making illustrator scripts, im definately no programmer. I have set up quickkeys in the past to copy from the artboard inputs when you are on the artboard tool but these round to the nearest .01 and this is not accurate enough for what I am working with. Also if I do this with multiple pages open illustrator is very slow to respond to the artboard tool.
Below is a script that I saw on here that I believe may contain what I need but now knowing programming. Where to start on editing. All I need is the part where an object is placed on the artboard that is the exact same size as the artboard.
#target illustrator function main() { if (app.documents.length == 0) { alert('Open a document before running this script'); return; // Stop script here no doc open… } else { var docRef = app.activeDocument; with (docRef) { if (selection.length == 0)
I'm trying to create a model of a Golf club head. I need it to be hollow but I am unable to do this using the shell operation or by creating a surface and thickening the faces. I created the geometry by lofting a series of sketches. I think the nature of the geometry may be causing the problem.
Do you need to use the join command on an object before making it into a dynamic block? I have these stairs I need to scale down to fit my floorplan, but when I place grips on it in order to scale them down, I can only scale of the block while the rest becomes totally distorted.
I am having an issue when trying to simulate cloth. When I simulate the cloth, the dialog box with the simulation comes up and before it finishes simulating one frame it closes. At the bottom of 3ds Max, it says end solve.
It worked on an earlier version of the same file as I was able to simulate 100 frames.
I am running 3ds Max 2010 on Windows Vista.
Below is a picture of my command panel. Why the simulation box only stays open for half a second?
What I have is an image of cloth, tablecloth to be precise and its all rumpled up...
What I need is to place splats (food stains) all over it, well only one or two... I don't mind if they are separate images or created directly on another layer or whatever is the best way...
The thing i'm stuck with is how to ensure they look like they're really on the cloth and take account of the light, shadow, peaks & troughs the cloth already has in its rumples.
