Re: What if Softimage died?
So, lets assume I 'transition' to Maya/Max (easier said than done!), and one of my clients wants some strand like stuff they've seen in my previous Softimage work. Do either of these (sarcasm mode on) 'obviously better products' (sarcasm mode off) offer anything like strands? I can speak for Max on...

Re: 3d integration with After Effects
I've used CC at work, even if for a short time so far with no chance to check what new actual features is bringing to the table. Despite the short amount of time, I wanted to give C4D lite a try. Needed a simple sphere with some reflections. From within AE it creates a new layer and opens C4D, then ...

Sparta Project
Sparta is the world's first sculpting app for the particle By the level of single particle in one frame Sparta can perfectly control a grain of particle, because we adopted the pen interface for GUI. Even you can create the animation like a stop motion film. Simply put, Sparta aims to ZBrush for th...

That sounds really promising!
Thank you for the hint dwigfor.

Re: How to bake ICE particles / strands?
Because we're working on a project and everything is being handled and produced within 3ds Max. Now we need some particle stuff and the best solution seems to be SI+Ice, as long as we can find a way to transfer that to Max, that doesn't sound really doable right now...

Re: How to bake ICE particles / strands?
Hm... it doesn't seem to work here. I get the particle flow and particles seem to be in the right position but that's it, no strands, no geometry. I thought there was a way to bake ice particles like for instance exporting Realflow simulation or bake Mograph animation. Just a obj sequence would be a...

How to bake ICE particles / strands?
Hi all, need to export ICE animation (particles and strands) to 3ds Max. I thought this should have been pretty common by now and I was searching around, I've found Bake Ice UVs but I guess it's just related to UVs, not particle / strands simulation. I know there's a "send to" link from SI...

Re: Video Wall with ICE?
Zafar Iqbal, thanks for helping out. I'm actually stuck at a more basic level right now. The truth is, it's a disaster. Texture doesn't work neither ICE particle duplication. I just relied on luck as I'm trying some scattering compounds that obviously cannot work properly. Clipboard-1.jpg It should ...

Video Wall with ICE?
I'm wondering if there's a way to create the classic video wall (http://j.mp/KstQJ6) with ICE.
I saw this https://vimeo.com/32012982 but it seems there's no explanation or compound.
I'll try something, just curious to see if someone has already stumbled across something like this, if so idea/tips?

Re: "ink" rendering
It would definitely something really interesting to read more about, as so far I haven't found many tutorials around either. I guess you already saw this: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?id=13582555&siteID=123112 there also should be a link to a zip particles file created by the direct...

Growing strands, attaching pins and avoind crashes.
I'm starting from a compound by Polynoid and this is what I've got so far: Clipboard-1.jpg It's kinda working but I'm struggling with two main issues. 1 - I want to have those spheres attached to the tip of the strands (of course they'll be smaller at that point). Right now they just stick to the em...

Thanks Hirazi blue, that was fast!
Actually the selection model looked like this: But switching back and forth fixed it.

Right click doesn't work anymore
Suddenly the right click doesn't show the modeling menu. It instead select-deselect edges, polygons, etc.
Any idea?
