Building your own Voronoi shattering effect with blackjack and hookers in Softimage ICE Promo

I`m making these videos for a year and friended only with two guys.This is absolutely wrong.I want MORE friends )))) So feel free to write and comment and so on ^_^

count me as a friend Nika , I enjoy your videos, apart from the Maya ones. but I understand you have to appeal to the crowds.

Hey,

Nice method. However, I couldn't make it work on a sphere just on a grid. And, for some reason, the scanning was not really straightforward . Finally, Apply Thickness is slow as hell, and doesn't cap the mesh on SI2014SP1

Anyway, really nice method, I learned a lot of ICE while I remade it

Harry Kaufmann made it - he turned it into a state of art ))) read the comments to video
and yoy`re right - apply thickness is slow as hell and leaves a cap ))) i also noticed it, but AFTER i published a video, he he he )))
if you add get topology->set topology nodes to repeat with counter caps will close )))
but it is "oldschool" now with Harry`s solution, just kidding - it could be used to shatter glass for example
can`t wait to get my hands on what he has done
also he suggested to filter generator particles with weightmap for example - to create controllable cracks - very nice idea !!!

in case you missed comments on vimeo))) found some modeling usage - you could make some procedural castles, or walls or fundaments or roads

screwed some dynamics - in the end i followed this lesson vimeo.com/50808495 to create separate chunks and then created standart rigid bodies from them and exploded )))

Your videos are great and the Maya ones are excellent (I blogged about one).
Anything that shows how Softimage/ICE and Maya can interop together is a good thing in my book.

[nikaragua86]

thanks, friend ))) write me if you have any ideas or suggestion )))

Hi nikaragua86,

Thanks for the tutorials, very informative and a good use of lateral thinking. Enjoyed it very much.

BTW, your video made it to the Proceduralism channel. Congratulation.

oh, thanks man ))) btw - thought that "lateral thinking" is some kind of vertebrae or muscle thinking ))) ahhahahaha
