Stick a mesh object (look-at target) to a cloth - Fabrice - 08-25-2024
Hi all
I made a tyflow curtain moving with a wind.
I want a character to follow a specific portion of the curtain
so I want to use a look-at constraint but the look-at need a mesh as a target.
How could I stick a mesh object to a part of a cloth object?
(Max 2025 + Tyflow 1.114)

3ds Max comes with attachment constraints which you can use for that.

You're right but the attachment constraint needs a mesh to attach to.
It doesnt recognize a tyflow object as a mesh.
I tried to use a TyMesher but it produces blobmesh wich makes polygons structure change at every frame making it unusable to the attachment constraint (the "aimed" polygon jump from frame to frame).

Sorry to insist but here's a scene with a cloth and a tyMesher.
I'm probably missing something obvious
but the tyMesher wont produce any "combined mesh".
I dont understand why.
Trying all the parameters 1 by 1 I found that changing the Tymesher 'Particle interface' parameter
from 'Force interface' to 'User interface if available' make the mesh appear.
So problem solved now.
