This looks very nice, could you do it just partially?

Sure

nice!

thanks for all these goodies!

haha! curious about the bunny inside the bunny did you made it on propose? Did you extruded polygon islands?

Does it needs Momentum?

No, you should remember that is not a boolean operation, the inner bunny generated automatically by the inverse extrusion, you can check how it works in a compound

Does it needs Momentum?

Of course not, you can use it for other types of effects, if you find any It's so useless, I'm currently trying to figure out why did I spend so much time on this. Anyone tried Grasshopper?

[Bullit]

I don't think it is useless, besides we never know what effect someone want. For example sucessive effects, a sort of matrioska of falling cubes...


Can you show the icetree of this one at top of this page:

I can see this in a weight loss product spot Nicely done, good to see something else than voronoi pieces shattered.

Slice on Cubes.xsicompound broke clusters information

[iamVFX]

It breaks cluster information, it breaks uv and custom normal maps because sometimes topology operations shuffles component index order in a chaotic and unpredictable manner

Hi Constantine,

is it possible to use Split Edge Evenly modulated by edgelength? (So the longer an edge is, the higher the nb of points.) I've been trying to get that to work but I'm afraid I'm too crap in ICE to figure it out. It must be something to do with context not being right (nb points is per object, edgelength is per edge element) but all my attempts at changing context have failed.

[iamVFX]

there's no time to explain

[druitre]

Can you (or someone else) give me some more? As in: I still can't figure it out.

[iamVFX]

Can you do it with repeat node?

Here's something. Roughly speaking, if EdgeLength = X, then it splits that edge into X edges. You should be able to generalize that and then use a Repeat node to apply to all edges.

[iamVFX]

Great work, Steve! There's no need for repeat node with Oleg's trick



[ just realized how stupid it was to name my version "even" and this "equal". oh well ]
