    Thread: Freeze when activating cloth self collision
Post: RE: Freeze when activating cloth self collision

The CCCS is freezing on tets because in their default state tets perfectly overlap with each other. This is what you want for normal tet dynamics, but not what you want for the CCCS, which requires cl...

    Thread: Freeze when activating cloth self collision
Post: RE: Freeze when activating cloth self collision

What exactly are you trying to achieve? Tets are for specific types of soft body sims that don’t require the CCCS. The sim will still be GPU accelerated in the PRO version, it just doesn’t need tha...

Hmm yea it does seem like it's crashing during the PhysX processing, as suspected. If you send me the file I can see if it'll run in the latest build here with the potential fix. You can also s...

Post: RE: cloth material and culling

Bit tricky to figure out what you're trying to do from the description alone, but you're right that groups assigned to particles don't transfer to mesh. There's not really an easy way to filter i...

Post: RE: Terrain masks with Redshift?

You can specify any number of color channels (ie, not just "color"...but also "mask", "snow", "roughness", etc...whatever you need), and then you can assign the results of those channels to a UVW chan...

Post: RE: tyflow experience with RTX4090 ?

Have you installed the very latest CUDA DLLs? They're required for 4090 cards (the older DLLs will not work with 4090s). Perhaps CUDA was disabled due to the 4090 incompatibility with the old DLLs ...

Post: RE: Support for Realflow for Max

tyCache objects can read PRT files. From there, load the tyCache into a tyFlow using Birth Flow/Flow Update operators.

Post: RE: Freeze when activating cloth self collision

If you post the file I can check it out, but the CCCS isn't really meant to work with tets. For tets you'll want to use regular Particle Physics collisions...if you open the official tets example f...

    Thread: Operator order?
Post: RE: Operator order?

Maybe coincidentally, but besides "Birth" operators being first, there wasn't a specific plan in place to have operator importance shift from left to right.

Post: RE: Operator order?

Yes, order matters. Operators are evaluated from top to bottom in each event, and events are evaluated in order starting with any event containing a Birth operator. You can also right-click in t...

Post: RE: tymesher and tycache options...

I see the issue...the bounding box calcs are not taking into considering the scale override you have on your mesh override. I'll get that fixed in the next build.

For scattering, why not use a regular tyFlow object? It'll give you the control you need and also support instancing.

Oh wow that's weird...the bounding box things seems like a bug. Could you send me the file so I can have a closer look? Support@tyflow.com is fine if you don't want to post publicly.
