Day 37

Mr Douglas dropped by today. I showed him what I had done so far. Both the particles driven vortex that blows up the pre-fractured geometry. I told him of my intention of implementing that system into the original fracturing system. Mr Ron also helped me explained about what is going on in the scene and also above the point sop that calculates the area and also the copy loop. I also showed Mr Douglas the files hierarchy set up for the secondary fracture in the original fracture file. Just that the files are not ropped out completely so I couldn't did any tests.


I finally finished ropping out all the files. And after plugging in the necessary nodes, I proceed to did some tests. At first the bounding sphere starts to occur from frame 1 onwards, which I do not want. So I put a if expression to trigger the activation of the bounding sphere. Below is how it looks:

I also set up expressions on both the forces which drives the particles. To make things faster, I ropped out the simulation just before the popnetwork. The ropping took me 1 hour and 45minutes. However after ropping out and checking the points, The point numbers and points moved drastically. Hence, when I did my copy stamping, on the second frame of my simulation, the simulation screwed up. Below is how it looks:

I figure that the points are giving me the problems as my particles looked alright. I went back to the ropped out files and check the points and this is what I see:

My particles look like this:

I do not know why is it like that. Hope Mr Ron could help me fix it.
