Rotor/Wind sim on instanced geometry
Posted: 19 Jan 2018, 19:06
Hey all, me again
I was just testing the super cool "Instances to Geo"-Compounds from the mootzoid plugins and build a grassfield.
Next test was to create a simulation on that geo, to get something like rotor balde wind on the grass.
Actually, it works already quite well.
I used a sphere to get the distance bewteen the emitter grid and the sphere itself.
Than I used the distance value to get a weight map on the grass geometry, to control the power of the "Surface Force"-Compound.
Actually the first 15-20 frames look cool, than it becomes kinda silly when the rotor moves...
Does anyone have some ideas, how to make it more realistic?
I also thought about Syflex - but first that would be a massive sim and second somehow I dont get nice turbulence in the Syflex Forces.
It does not work with the normal "Turbulize around Values"-Compunds etc...
And of course some grass parts, dust, flying debris will make it more cool.
Rendered in Redshift, ~40 seks per frame in HD Ready on a 1080er.
Thx,
